public final class Interval extends AbstractIntSortedSet implements IntSortedSet, Serializable
An interval of integers. An interval is defined by two integers, called its left and right extremes, and contains all integers x such that left ≤ x ≤ right.

This class has no constructor: use the static factory methods valueOf(int, int) and valueOf(int), instead.

Instances of this class are immutable, and moreover implement the IntSortedSet interface. The equality method allows to check equality with both sorted and non-sorted sets of integers.

To reduce garbage collection, intervals made of one non-negative small points are precomputed and returned upon request.

    • left

      public final int left
      The left extreme of the interval.

  • Constructor Details

    • Interval

      protected Interval(int left, int right)
      Builds an interval with given extremes.

      You cannot generate an empty interval with this constructor. Use Intervals.EMPTY_INTERVAL instead.

      Parameters:
      left - the left extreme.
      right - the right extreme (which must be greater than or equal to the left extreme).

  • Method Details

    • valueOf

      public static Interval valueOf(int left, int right)
      Returns an interval with given extremes.

      You cannot obtain an empty interval with this factory method. Use Intervals.EMPTY_INTERVAL instead.

      Parameters:
      left - the left extreme.
      right - the right extreme (which must be greater than or equal to the left extreme).
      Returns:
      an interval with the given extremes.

    • valueOf

      public static Interval valueOf(int point)
      Returns a one-point interval.

      point - a point.
      Returns:
      a one-point interval
