* provides for the ability to specify the min, max, and

*
* <b>value policies</b>
* A class that provides the range limits via the min and
* max functions as well as a function on_error that
* determines how errors are handled. A common strategy
* would be to assert or throw and exception. The on_error
* is passed both the current value and the new value that
* is in error.
