# toString method

1. @override

String toString()
override

A string representation of this object.

Some classes have a default textual representation, often paired with a static `parse` function (like int.parse). These classes will provide the textual representation as their string representation.

Other classes have no meaningful textual representation that a program will care about. Such classes will typically override `toString` to provide useful information when inspecting the object, mainly for debugging or logging.

## Implementation

    @override
    String toString() {
      if (start != null && end != null) {
        return '${start.toString()} - ${end.toString()}';
      } else if (start != null) {
        return '>= ${start.toString()}';
      } else if (end != null) {
        return '< ${end.toString()}';
      }
      return 'any';
    }
