Class Range

java.lang.Object

org.unix4j.util.Range

public class Range
extends Object

Range offers ways of specifying a range of numbers. USAGE:
There are no public constructors in this object. The user should use one of the static factory methods to create a Range.
e.g. The following will create a range of numbers from 1 to 5

Range.between(1,5);

Chaining can be used to specify multiple range "elements"
e.g. The following will create a range of numbers from 1 to 5, and all numbers above 10

Range.between(1,5).andToEndFrom(10);
