[jira] [Commented] (LANG-1387) Add Span interfaces to handle checks
for overlaps, containment, equality, etc.
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-1387?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16430512#comment-16430512 ]
Claude Warren commented on LANG-1387:
-------------------------------------
This does not seem to fit in any of the existing commons-numbers categories. Are you suggesting a new category? If so what would the category for span would be?
Numbers appears to be categories of numbers (e.g. primes, complex, etc.) I don't think this fits.

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-1387
> Project: Commons Lang
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: lang.*, lang.math.*
> Affects Versions: 3.7
> Reporter: Claude Warren
> Priority: Minor
>
> This is a contribution of a span class as discussed on the mailing list.
> The classes are int and long based and can:
> # determine if points are within the span.
> # determine if one span contains another span
> # determine if two spans overlap
> # do not have to have 0 (zero) as the index origin.
> # determine the length of the span
> # determine the last position in the span.
> # determine the first position in the span.
> Changes to Number Utils required to detect underflow and overflow calculations.
