I've had problems with the functions, being used to the [start,end)
notation on paper. I'll look at them again.

But anyway, after so many years of not having intervals and operators,
I read "$start<= $val and $val < $end" as "$val in [$start,$end)", I
think it shares brain paths with "for(;;)" parsing to "forever /
loop". I would like to have the "$start <= $val < $end" which some
language whose name I do not remember has, for complex $vals.
