The "API" page has been changed by ManuZhang: http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/API?action=diff&rev1=35&rev2=36 === KeyRange === A `KeyRange` is used by `get_range_slices` to define the range of keys to get the slices for. - The semantics of start keys and tokens are slightly different. Keys are start-inclusive; tokens are start-exclusive. Token ranges may also wrap -- that is, the end token may be less than the start one. Thus, a range from keyX to keyX is a one-element range, but a range from tokenY to tokenY is the full ring. + The semantics of start keys and tokens are slightly different.
