The Stack Exchange API documentation is ever so slightly confusing wherever Unix timestamps are mentioned (*perhaps any ranges, I haven't dug too deeply*)


[For instance:][1]
> **todate** – Unix timestamp of the maximum creation date on a returned item.  
unix epoch date, range *[0, 253,402,300,799]*

It took me a very brief moment to understand what was intended by the italicized part. For clarity, perhaps this should be edited to one of the following:

> ...unix epoch date, *range [0, 253402300799]*

> ...unix epoch date, *range [0 .. 253,402,300,799]*

> ...unix epoch date, *range [0 - 253,402,300,799]*
