As a homework, try to parse "at least until" and "goes beyond" and compare the two (a dictionary is not necessarily of help with this :) "range is least 0..65535" : upper_bound >= 65535 "goes beyond 65535" : upper_bound > 65535 For some discussions (like how to represent code points etc) this distinction is crucial.
