Character Ranges

A
character range
(which is always part of a
character group
) defines a set of permitted characters that contains either a single character or a range of characters occupying adjacent Unicode codepoints.

If you are comparing these rules with the ones in XML Schema Part 2, be sure to look at the second edition; the original XML Schema Recommendation got this syntax badly wrong. In fact, there are still a couple of errors in the second edition.
