Numbering prefix pattern classifier: a range overwrites an earlier matching literal in the same class · case 04
"5..." does not match "[50-3]X".
Case contract
Input [number, rules] with rules [pattern, label] in priority order. Pattern characters: X any digit, [..] a class of single digits and inclusive ranges a-b, other characters literal. A pattern matches when each of its positions matches the corresponding number digit (the number may be longer). Score: literal digit 2, class 1, X 0; the highest score wins and ties keep the earlier rule. No match gives "unknown".
Why this case matters
Numbering-plan tables decide routing, rating and number type from prefixes; specificity and range errors misroute whole blocks of numbers.
One recorded failure
Sample boundary fixtureThis sample comes from the broken implementation of a controlled reproducer.
| Boundary fixture | Actual | Expected | Outcome |
|---|---|---|---|
| literal then range in one class | "unknown" | "class-literal" | Failed |
