        Parameters:
        num - the number to use for this range
        Throws:
        NullPointerException - if the number is null

        If the maximum is less than the minimum, the range will be constructed from the minimum value to the minimum value, not what you would expect!.

        Parameters:
        min - the minimum number in this range
        max - the maximum number in this range

      • equals

        public boolean equals​(Object obj)
