verify/interval - verify that the first argument is a point in the interval

Calling Sequence
|
|
verify(expr1, expr2, interval(character))
|
|
Parameters
|
|
expr1
|
-
|
anything, assumed to be of type algebraic
|
expr2
|
-
|
anything, assumed to be of type range(algebraic)
|
character
|
-
|
(optional) description of the character of the interval
|

Description
|
|
•
|
An interval is either an open, closed, or semi-open contiguous subset of the real line.
|
•
|
The verify(expr1, expr2, interval(character)) calling sequence returns true if it can determine that the point expr1 is located in the interval defined by the second argument.
|
•
|
The options available for describing the character of the interval are: open..open, closed..closed, open..closed, and closed..open. The abbreviations open and closed are equivalent to open..open and closed..closed, respectively.
|
•
|
This verification is a short form for calling the appropriate forms of the verifications greater_than, greater_equal, less_than, and less_equal.
|
•
|
This verification is not symmetric.
|
•
|
If expr1 is not of type algebraic or expr2 is not of type range(algebraic), then false is returned.
