How to generate an array of the alphabet?

by

Personally I think the best is:

alphabet="abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz".split('');

Concise, effective, legible, and simple!

EDIT:
I have decided, that since my answer is receiving a fair amount of attention to add the functionality to choose specific ranges of letters.

function to_a(c1 = 'a', c2 = 'z') {
    a="abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz".split('');
    return (a.slice(a.indexOf(c1), a.indexOf(c2) + 1)); 
}

console.log(to_a('b', 'h'));
