Does the parameter end from VariantFile.fetch is included or excluded

[bioinfornatics]

Dear,
little question, into the documentation it is tell that start and end is 0-based but what about inclusive/exclusive ?
I would like to know if start=0 and end=5 that fetch 6 bases or 5 ?

Thanks

Best regards

In general in pysam, where parameters are supplied as start,stop integers, they are 0-based half-open. Where they are supplied as a human-readable "chr:start-stop" string, the coordinates are 1-based inclusive.

I've prepared a clarification for the VariantFile.fetch documentation accordingly. Thanks for pointing out the documentation deficiency.
