That may sound logic for your particular example, however if you spread it with say
range('24','42'), it'll become inconsistent. Concatenation with integer
still works, and the way it's handled now is consistent - numeric strings become numbers, it
was introduced somewhere in PHP-4 according to the doc page. And btw that is platform independent
behavior.

Description:
------------
---
From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.range
---
Test script:
---------------
$allowedChars_num = range(0,9);
$allowedChars_str = range('0','9');
var_dump($allowedChars_num);
var_dump($allowedChars_str);
Expected result:
----------------
range(0,9) is proper, making an array of integers
range('0','9') should be making an array of strings, ex:
'0','1','2' etc...
Actual result:
--------------
array(10) { [0]=> int(0) [1]=> int(1) [2]=> int(2) [3]=> int(3) [4]=> int(4) [5]=>
int(5) [6]=> int(6) [7]=> int(7) [8]=> int(8) [9]=> int(9) }
array(10) { [0]=> int(0) [1]=> int(1) [2]=> int(2) [3]=> int(3) [4]=> int(4) [5]=>
int(5) [6]=> int(6) [7]=> int(7) [8]=> int(8) [9]=> int(9) }
