Oops! The correct candidates are "a range unbounded below" and "a range unbounded above". Thanks. ---------------------------------------- Bug #16114: Naming of "beginless range" https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/16114#change-80908 * Author: pwim (Paul McMahon) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * Target version: * ruby -v: * Backport: 2.5: UNKNOWN, 2.6: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- #14799 introduces a "beginless range" to complement the already existing "endless range". However, "beginless" isn't an existing word in English. Since the term for something without a beginning is "beginingless", I'd propose renaming "beginless range" to "beginningless range". -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe: <mailto:ruby-core-request@ruby-lang.org?subject=unsubscribe> <http://lists.ruby-lang.org/cgi-bin/mailman/options/ruby-core>
