The command toList 1..9 will throw an error, because toList comes before .. in Macaulay2's order of operations. To create a list from a range, use toList (1..9) instead.
i4 : toList (1..9)
o4 = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}
o4 : List
|
Converting between list types may change the order of the elements in unexpected ways.
i5 : toList set {4,5,13}
o5 = {4, 13, 5}
o5 : List

The object toList is a compiled function.
