replaceRange method Null safety

Replaces a range of elements with the elements of replacement.

Removes the objects in the range from start to end, then inserts the elements of replacements at start.

var list = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
list.replaceRange(1, 4, [6, 7]);
list.join(', '); // '1, 6, 7, 5'

The provided range, given by start and end, must be valid. A range from start to end is valid if 0 ≤ start ≤ end ≤ length. An empty range (with end == start) is valid.

The operation list.replaceRange(start, end, replacements) is roughly equivalent to:

list.removeRange(start, end);
list.insertAll(start, replacements);

but may be more efficient.

The list must be growable. This method does not work on fixed-length lists, even when replacement has the same number of elements as the replaced range. In that case use setRange instead.
