        `range' returns a vector containing the minimum and
        maximum of all the values present in its first argu-
        ments, unless `na.rm' or `finite' is `TRUE'.  If
        `na.rm' is `FALSE', `NA' and `NaN' values in any of the
        arguments will cause NA values to be returned, other-
        wise `NA' values are ignored.  If `finite' is `TRUE',
        the minimum and maximum of all finite values is com-
        puted, i.e., `finite=TRUE' includes `na.rm=TRUE'.
