(Range) method int-bounds
proto method int-bounds(|) multi method int-bounds() multi method int-bounds($from is rw, $to is rw --> Bool:D)
If the Range
is an integer range (as indicated by is-int), then this method returns a list with the first and last value it will iterate over (taking into account excludes-min and excludes-max). Returns a Failure if it is not an integer range.
say (2..5).int-bounds; # OUTPUT: «(2 5)» say (2..^5).int-bounds; # OUTPUT: «(2 4)»
If called with (writable) arguments, these will take the values of the higher and lower bound and returns whether integer bounds could be determined from the Range
:
if (3..5).int-bounds( my $min, my $max) { say "$min, $max" ; # OUTPUT: «3, 5» } else { say "Could not determine integer bounds"; }
