I saw the following example in "Ada Programming" Wiki book:

if Temperature >= Degrees'(40.0) then
    Put_Line ("It's extremely hot");
elsif Temperature in Degrees'(30.0 .. 39.0) then
    Put_Line ("It's hot");
elsif Temperature in Degrees'(20.0 .. 29.0) then
    Put_Line ("It's warm");
elsif Temperature in Degrees'(10.0 .. 19.0) then
    Put_Line ("It's cool");
elsif temperature in Degrees'(0.0 .. 9.0) then
    Put_Line ("It's cold");
else
    Put_Line ("It's freezing");
end if;

What happens at 29.5 degrees?
I'm assuming that "Temperature in Degrees'(20.0 .. 29.0)" will test
the interval Temperature >= 20.0 through Temperature <= 29.0.
So temperatures between 29.0 and 30.0 will be considered "freezing".
