>  ## Price Ranges

>  _Quiz description by James Edward Gray II_

>  You have a list of price ranges from different vendors like:
> 
>      Company A:  $1,000 - $3,000
>      Company B:  $6,000 - $10,000
>      Company C:  $500 - $2,500
> 
>  Given such a list and the desired price range a shopper wishes to pay,
>  return the companies the shopper should examine. For example, if the
>  shopper's price range was:
> 
>      Low:   $2,500
>      High:  $5,000
> 
>  the companies returned would be:
> 
>      Company A
>      Company C
> 
>  The shopper should also be allowed to provide just a low or just a high
>  value instead of both, should they prefer to do so.
