[MOAB-dev] Range contiguity method

[Vijay S. Mahadevan]

Patrick, you are looking for something like Range::psize() [1], which
returns the number of non-contiguous sequences in the object. Does
that help ? If this is not what you are asking, them I'm unclear what
you mean by "rapidly check that a Range object contains a set of
contiguous values".
