Issue #16114 has been updated by mame (Yusuke Endoh).


I know that it is an awkward word, but it came from `Range#begin` and `Range#end`.  IMO, you can call it as you like.

----------------------------------------
#14799 introduces a "beginless range" to complement the already existing "endless range".  However, "beginless" isn't an existing word in English. Since the term for something without a beginning is "beginingless", I'd propose renaming "beginless range" to "beginningless range".
