This pull-request closes #98, by ensuring that the range operator (`..`) can count down as well as up. This allows ranges such as: * 3..10 * 4..0 However note that the first number cannot be negative, as that's then treated as "- [1, 2..]" - i.e. negative array, which makes no sense. This should be resolved, but it is a bigger job.
