https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/12983
In sklearn, we use `sklearn.six.moves` which makes `range` and `xrange` to
be used interchangeably. In Python3, both `range` and `xrange` would return a
`range` instance and in Py2, both `xrange` and `range` would return a `xrange`
instance. Something like
```python
if sys.version[0] == '3':
xrange = range
if sys.version[0] == '2':
range = xrange
```
That being said, I'm ok with this PR being merged as it is since as a Py3
user, it is more natural for me to use `range`. (But only as a Py3 user).
Anyway I believe, we should be consistent in usage.
