in thread [SOLVED]: Need help with range expression ('0 .. -0.5' === '0 .. 0.5')

No, why (from Range Operators):

In list context, it returns a list of values counting (up by ones) from the left value to the right value. If the left value is greater than the right value then it returns the empty list.

I'm embarrassed to see now, I posted almost the same answer as poj 10 minutes after him. I guess I just glanced across available answers without actually reading, thought his was long enough so mine is different, and clicked "create". Sorry about that.

    I had already found the pertinent documentation for the range operator (thanks for posting the link). I still cannot find documentation for the special case of array slice.
