Interval

public Interval(Object min,
                Object max,
                Comparator com)

Constructs an interval of orderable objects. The two first arguments are the bounds of the newly created interval, and the third one is the comparison fonction that impose an order on this objects.

Parameters:

min - the minimum bound.

max - the maximum bound.

com - the comparison fonction.

Interval

public Interval(Object min,
                Object max)

Construct an interval of orderable objects. The two parameters defined the bounds of this interval and must implements the Comparable interface.

Parameters:

min - a value of type 'Object'

max - a value of type 'Object'
