# Fungrim entry: 12d5ab

Symbol: ClosedInterval $\left[a, b\right]$ Closed interval
ClosedInterval(a, b) $\left[a, b\right]$ Represents $\left\{ x : x \in \mathbb{R} \cup \left\{-\infty, \infty\right\} \,\mathbin{\operatorname{and}}\, a \le x \le b \right\}$.
ClosedInterval(0, 1) $\left[0, 1\right]$ Represents the closed unit interval.
ClosedInterval(1, 1) $\left[1, 1\right]$ Represents the singleton set {1}.
ClosedInterval(Neg(Infinity), 0) $\left[-\infty, 0\right]$ Represents half the extended real line (including minus infinity and zero).
ClosedInterval(1, -1) $\left[1, -1\right]$ Represents the empty set. Note: potentially confusing rendering.
Add(1, Mul(ClosedInterval(0, 1), ConstI)) $1 + \left[0, 1\right] i$ Represents a set of points in the complex plane. ClosedInterval(a, b) should only be used with extended real number $a$ and $b$ as endpoints, but line segments in the complex plane can be constructed by applying arithmetic operations to a set of real numbers (acting pointwise).
Add(ClosedInterval(1, 4), Mul(ClosedInterval(0, 1), ConstI)) $\left[1, 4\right] + \left[0, 1\right] i$ Represents a rectangle in the complex plane.
