I have a practical need for a script that will give me a random int in
the closed interval [n, m]. Please see

This works fine when I enter both n and m as, for example, "23, 56",
or even "56, 23". But often the closed interval is [1, m], so I'd like
to not have to enter the 1 in those cases, and just enter, say, "37"
to mean the interval [1, 37]. Highlighted lines 9-11 are my attempt to
do this, but it fails. This seems like it should be so simple to do,
but it isn't not for me. Advice, please.
Thanks,

Split the input before the if.
Fork based on the length of the resulting list.
