What does 2 numbers in a bracket mean?

What does brackets notation mean?
A bracket - [ or ] - means that end of the range is inclusive -- it includes the element listed. A parenthesis - ( or ) - means that end is exclusive and doesn't contain the listed element. So for [first1, last1) , the range starts with first1 (and includes it), but ends just before last1 .
