/**
 * Defines the data model used by components like <code>Slider</code>s
 * and <code>ProgressBar</code>s.
 * Defines four interrelated integer properties: minimum, maximum, extent
 * and value.  These four integers define two nested ranges like this:
 * <pre>
 * minimum &lt;= value &lt;= value+extent &lt;= maximum
 * </pre>
 * The outer range is <code>minimum,maximum</code> and the inner
 * range is <code>value,value+extent</code>.  The inner range
 * must lie within the outer one, i.e. <code>value</code> must be
 * less than or equal to <code>maximum</code> and <code>value+extent</code>
 * must greater than or equal to <code>minimum</code>, and <code>maximum</code>
 * must be greater than or equal to <code>minimum</code>.
 * There are a few features of this model that one might find a little
 * surprising.  These quirks exist for the convenience of the
 * Swing BoundedRangeModel clients, such as <code>Slider</code> and
 * <code>ScrollBar</code>.
 * <ul>
 * <li>
 *   The minimum and maximum set methods "correct" the other
 *   three properties to accommodate their new value argument.  For
 *   example setting the model's minimum may change its maximum, value,
 *   and extent properties (in that order), to maintain the constraints
 *   specified above.
 *
 * <li>
 *   The value and extent set methods "correct" their argument to
 *   fit within the limits defined by the other three properties.
 *   For example if <code>value == maximum</code>, <code>setExtent(10)</code>
 *   would change the extent (back) to zero.
 *
 * <li>
 *   The four BoundedRangeModel values are defined as Java Beans properties
 *   however Swing ChangeEvents are used to notify clients of changes rather
 *   than PropertyChangeEvents. This was done to keep the overhead of monitoring
 *   a BoundedRangeModel low. Changes are often reported at MouseDragged rates.
 * </ul>
 *
 * <p>
 *
 * For an example of specifying custom bounded range models used by sliders,
 * see <a
 href="http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/architecture-142923.html#separable">Separable model architecture</a>
 * in <em>A Swing Architecture Overview.</em>
