left (resp. right) takes as argument a range of values.
left (resp. right) returns the left (resp. right) boundary of this range.
Note that .. is an infixed operator, therefore:

Input:

left(3..5)

or:

(3..5)[1]

or:

Input:

right(3..5)

or:

(2..5)[2]

or:

feuille(3..5)[1]

or:

op(3..5)[1]

Remark
left (resp. right) returns also the left (resp. right) member of an equation (for example left(2*x+1=x+2) returns 2*x+1).
