+Harmonized random.randrange() argument handling to match range().
+
+* The integer test and conversion in randrange() now uses
+ operator.index().
+* Non-integer arguments to randrange() are deprecated.
+* The *ValueError* is deprecated in favor of a *TypeError*.
+* It now runs a little faster than before.
