Limit X Clause

The Limit X Clause immediately follows a numeric variable N and proscribes its valid ranges. X must always be a positive integer; X may not be 0.

The Clause Syntax is:

[ N ] (operator) X

Common variants include:

• N ≤ X. N may be any integer less than X, inclusive.
• N ≥ X. N may be any integer larger than X, inclusive.
• Up to X. N may be any integer between 1 and X, inclusive.
• X–Y. N may be any integer between X and Y, inclusive.

In the latter two cases, the clause also replaces N.
