+Ranges below noted as [a, b] are closed ranges between a and b, i.e. a
+and b are included in the range.
Normally I've seen <a, b> for closed ranges, (a, b) for open
ranges. Is that different in your country?
I guess there are different notations. :-) I've seen regular parentheses
being used for open ranges, too, but not < and >.

Open range is documented in a related well written Wikipedia article:

<URL:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_range>

Are there such open ranges in Czechia? For instance, reindeer generally
roam freely in Finnish Lappland.
:-). Well, we have pigs and roes roaming freely in the woods, but
would not normally call it open range.
What comes to the patch, I guess "interval" could be a more appropriate
term to use in this case:

<URL:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interval_(mathematics)>

The patch is in line with the Wikipedia article in notation but not in
terminology. I'll send a fix.
Ok, that was really nitpicking, thanks!
