[lmi-commits] [lmi] master e8b3638 3/6: Remove a pointless test case

[Greg Chicares]

branch: master
commit e8b3638211406162aaaa42739ce88ac910939b3b
Author: Gregory W. Chicares <address@hidden>
Commit: Gregory W. Chicares <address@hidden>

    Remove a pointless test case
    
    The case removed purported to test empty intervals, but did not.
    It was equivalent to the case preceding it. The case following it
    actually does test empty intervals, as its newly elaborated
    documentation explains.
