Range represents an interval or a sequence. It is used to get a set of numbers/ strings lying in a particular range.
Following is the declaration for com.google.common.collect.Range<C> class −
@GwtCompatible public final class Range<C extends Comparable> extends Object implements Predicate<C>, Serializable
Sr.No | Method & Description |
---|---|
1 | static <C extends Comparable<?>> Range<C> all() Returns a range that contains every value of type C. |
2 | boolean apply(C input)Deprecated. Provided only to satisfy the Predicate interface; use contains(C) instead. |
3 | static <C extends Comparable<?>> Range<C> atLeast(C endpoint) Returns a range that contains all values greater than or equal to endpoint. |
4 | static <C extends Comparable<?>> Range<C> atMost(C endpoint) Returns a range that contains all values less than or equal to endpoint. |
5 | Range<C> canonical(DiscreteDomain<C> domain) Returns the canonical form of this range in the given domain. |
6 | static <C extends Comparable<?>> Range<C> closed(C lower, C upper) Returns a range that contains all values greater than or equal to lower and less than or equal to upper. |
7 | static <C extends Comparable<?>> Range<C> closedOpen(C lower, C upper) Returns a range that contains all values greater than or equal to lower and strictly less than upper. |
8 | boolean contains(C value) Returns true if value is within the bounds of this range. |
9 | boolean containsAll(Iterable<? extends C> values) Returns true if every element in values is contained in this range. |
10 | static <C extends Comparable<?>> Range<C> downTo(C endpoint, BoundType boundType) Returns a range from the given endpoint, which may be either inclusive (closed) or exclusive (open), with no upper bound. |
11 | static <C extends Comparable<?>> Range<C> encloseAll(Iterable<C> values) Returns the minimal range that contains all of the given values. |
12 | boolean encloses(Range<C> other) Returns true if the bounds of other do not extend outside the bounds of this range. |
13 | boolean equals(Object object) Returns true if object is a range having the same endpoints and bound types as this range. |
14 | static <C extends Comparable<?>> Range<C> greaterThan(C endpoint) Returns a range that contains all values strictly greater than endpoint. |
15 | int hashCode() Returns a hash code for this range. |
16 | boolean hasLowerBound() Returns true if this range has a lower endpoint. |
17 | boolean hasUpperBound() Returns true if this range has an upper endpoint. |
18 | Range<C> intersection(Range<C> connectedRange) Returns the maximal range enclosed by both this range and connectedRange, if such a range exists. |
19 | boolean isConnected(Range<C> other) Returns true if there exists a (possibly empty) range which is enclosed by both this range and other. |
20 | boolean isEmpty() Returns true if this range is of the form [v..v) or (v..v]. |
21 | static <C extends Comparable<?>> Range<C> lessThan(C endpoint) Returns a range that contains all values strictly less than endpoint. |
22 | BoundType lowerBoundType() Returns the type of this range's lower bound: BoundType.CLOSED if the range includes its lower endpoint, BoundType.OPEN if it does not. |
23 | C lowerEndpoint() Returns the lower endpoint of this range. |
24 | static <C extends Comparable<?>> Range<C> open(C lower, C upper) Returns a range that contains all values strictly greater than lower and strictly less than upper. |
25 | static <C extends Comparable<?>> Range<C> openClosed(C lower, C upper) Returns a range that contains all values strictly greater than lower and less than or equal to upper. |
26 | static <C extends Comparable<?>> Range<C> range(C lower, BoundType lowerType, C upper, BoundType upperType) Returns a range that contains any value from lower to upper, where each endpoint may be either inclusive (closed) or exclusive (open). |
27 | static <C extends Comparable<?>> Range<C> singleton(C value) Returns a range that contains only the given value. |
28 | Range<C> span(Range<C> other) Returns the minimal range that encloses both this range and other. |
29 | String toString() Returns a string representation of this range, such as "[3..5)" (other examples are listed in the class documentation). |
30 | BoundType upperBoundType() Returns the type of this range's upper bound: BoundType.CLOSED if the range includes its upper endpoint, BoundType.OPEN if it does not. |
31 | C upperEndpoint() Returns the upper endpoint of this range. |
32 | static <C extends Comparable<?>> Range<C> upTo(C endpoint, BoundType boundType) Returns a range with no lower bound up to the given endpoint, which may be either inclusive (closed) or exclusive (open). |

Compile the class using javac compiler as follows −
C:\Guava>javac GuavaTester.java
Now run the GuavaTester to see the result.
C:\Guava>java GuavaTester
See the result.
