Range operator (`..`): make it clear that integer endpoints refers to `[int32]`, specifically about powershell-docs HOT 2 CLOSED

• [int]::MaxValue + 1 in streaming processing (where the numbers are created and consumed on demand, one by one)

@mklement0 I am not sure I understand this statement. I was able to stream the full range of [int32] values.

[int32]::MinValue..[int32]::MaxValue | %{ $_ }

from powershell-docs.

You're right, I forgot about the negative range.

To put it differently: In streaming processing, .. works fine as long as the endpoints both fit into [int] (System.Int32),
which amounts to an effective limit of [uint]::MaxValue + 1 (System.UInt32; -[int]::MinValue + [int]::MaxValue + 1), which is 4294967296

I've updated the previous comment.
