This is not necessarily a bug. This could just be another (admittedly
non-standard ) convention, considering the boundary points still as parts of the
interval. A consistent treatment in the whole program of this will also work
correctly.
However, I would also strongly suggest to adapt to the standard convention.
Comparisons with literature or other source code will be much easier.
