I don't think "ranged types" is wrong. It's not what the Ada RM calls
them, but so what? You're not writing the Ada RM, nor a
language-lawyerly article about Ada; you're writing an article
about how to do something Ada-like in C++, and in that context,
it's perfectly reasonable to use informal terminology.
I use the term "pointer" all the time to refer to things that point,
such as Ada access values.
