"to" could be exclusive and "thru" inclusive like parse. Don't know what you
do about the range start though.

".." is quite concise (if barely legible on my monitor ;) ). So if we were
lucky enough to get some range math use a .. b for an inclusive range as
suggested before.
a <.. b for an exclusive start point and inclusive end point
a ..> b you can guess
a <..> b a range that does not include the end points
