I've found it quite helpful. There were things I wasn't aware of - shame
on me, thanks to you! :)
I think I've found a bug there:
o The frame entitled as "The optional keywords", for the MAXVALUE, last
part of the sentence says "..., and is also the number the sequence will
wrap around to if _is_called_ is true." I believe, "is_called" should
be changed to "is_cycled".
o The same copy-paste bug seems to be for the MINVALUE as well.
As for the user interface, could you make it a bit bigger and bolder
font maybe?
A question for you, Justin: how would it be possible to make a translation
of it to other languages?
Thank you for the good work!
