Title: RE: Range-Types in 9.2

hello,

agree about this great feature :)

There is another point I've wondered about:

Is there some logical reason why no function width(range) was added to the bundle ?
not a big deal, but width(range) looks just nicer than upper(range)-lower(range)

best regards,

Marc Mamin

CREATE TYPE timerange AS RANGE ( subtype = time );

That's the simple answer. I believe we discussed including this as a
built-in range type at some point, but decided against it. I can't
remember the reason right now.
