+
+Stores the given value for the given range. Does not throw exceptions.
+
+The range is defined as C<< Num $x : $min <= $x < $max >>. A C<< from
+=> undef >> means "from -Inf", and a C<< to => undef >> means "to
++Inf". Not passing in C<from> or C<to> is equivalent to passing
+C<undef>.
+
+If the given range intersects existing ranges, these are spliced to
+avoid overlaps. In other words:
+
+  $obj->set({
+    from => 10,
+    to => 20,
+    value => 'foo',
+  });
+  $obj->set({

+  say $obj->get({at => 12}); # prints 'foo'
+  say $obj->get({at => 15}); # prints 'bar'
+  say $obj->get({at => 25}); # dies
+
+No cloning is done: if you pass in a reference, the reference is
+just stored.
