Gilles updated MATH-1259:
-------------------------
    Attachment: IntegerSequence.java

To avoid compatibility issues, I propose to implement the correct functionality 
in a new class (see attached file).
Please review.

The old {{Incrementor}} would be deprecated in 3.6 and removed in 4.0.

> In class Incrementor in the org.apache.commons.math4.util package it is 
> possible to pass a negative number for the max variable. Given that the count 
> variable is initialised to 0 by default, it means that canIncrement() method 
> will always return false. 
> I wonder whether it is an acceptable behaviour, given that documentation says 
> that Incrementor is a utility that increments a counter until a maximum is 
> reached. And in the case of negative max this maximum is not reachable at 
> all.
