    Parentheses (also just called brackets here in North America, where the English language comes to die) are used to show that the listed values are not included in the range. They’re always used for infinity since infinity isn’t a real number.

    So 0 to infinity would be [0, ∞). I think the semicolon vs comma is a regional style thing.
