Here you've used the case statement to exclude start on the middle range. The problem is the code is largely static while the values of the endpoints (and which ranges should include those endpoints) may chang... slash_nick (Ryan Hosford)

04:30 PM Ruby Feature #12133: Ability to exclude start when defining a range
