You're right, that's what I get for not having written a line of C in what 15 years. Bonus challenge: write for i in i32::MIN..=i32::MAX in C, that is, iterate over the whole range, start and end inclusive.

(I guess the ..= might be where my confusion came from because Rust's .. is end-exclusive and thus like <, but also not what you want because i32::MAX + 1 panics).
