<P>
A RangeExpression is an expression that represents an integer sequence as
a pair of end-points (for example "x to y").
If the end-points are equal, the sequence is of length one.
<p>From Saxon 7.8, the sequence must be ascending; if the end-point is less
than the start-point, an empty sequence is returned. This is to allow
expressions of the form "for $i in 1 to count($seq) return ...." </p>

<DD>For an expression that returns an integer or a sequence of integers, get
a lower and upper bound on the values of the integers that may be returned, from

representing the lower and upper bounds respectively. The values
UNBOUNDED_LOWER and UNBOUNDED_UPPER are used by convention to indicate that
the value may be arbitrarily large. The values MAX_STRING_LENGTH and MAX_SEQUENCE_LENGTH
are used to indicate values limited by the size of a string or the size of a sequence.
