Open ranges

Thoughts?

let gtZero = 0..
let ltZero = ..0
let gteZero = 0...
let lteZero = ...0

If ranges were enclosed in square brackets, we could do:

# Open ranges
let gtZero = [ >0 ]
let ltZero = [ <0 ]
let gteZero = [ >=0 ]
let lteZero = [ <=0 ]

# Closed ranges
let a = [ 0..1 ]
let b = [ 0...1 ]
let c = [ >0 <1 ]

I would use:

0...Math.Infinity
-Math.Infinity...0

Compare how the two look in an array slice:

let a = [ 1, 2, 3 ]
let b = a[ 1..a.length ]
let c = a[ 1... ]
