I thought of this -- especially since ChatGPT's first (python-esque)
example uses "inf" -- but what would you use as "infinity" in LiveCode? In
practice if I were coding and comfortable with it I'd probably just throw
in 999999999 and be done, but in the abstract, there are bigger numbers
allowed in LC, and I don't care to find the absolute largest -- plus it
would be some weird long string -- I think, I don't know off the top of my
head what the largest 64-bit value is.
Just use the constant 'infinity'
I think it was added fairly recently, but the dictionary doesn't say
what version it first appeared in.
