     27 The [**range**][range] is defined as the difference between the maximum and minimum values.

     37 ## Usage
     38 
     39 ```javascript

     41 ```
     42 
     43 #### iterrange( iterator )
     44 
     45 Computes the [range][range] of all [iterated][mdn-iterator-protocol] values.
     46 
     47 ```javascript
     48 var array2iterator = require( '@stdlib/array/to-iterator' );
     49 
     50 var arr = array2iterator( [ 1.0, -2.0, 3.0, -4.0 ] );
     51 
     52 var v = iterrange( arr );
     53 // returns 7.0
     54 ```

     63 
     64 ## Notes
     65 
     66 -   If an iterated value is non-numeric (including `NaN`), the returned [`iterator`][mdn-iterator-protocol] returns `NaN`. If non-numeric iterated values are possible, you are advised to provide an [`iterator`][mdn-iterator-protocol] which type checks and handles non-numeric values accordingly.
