### Composer Semver Intervals Methods

Source: https://github.com/composer/semver/blob/main/README.md

Provides static utility methods for working with version intervals and complex constraints.

```APIDOC
Composer\Semver\Intervals:
  isSubsetOf(ConstraintInterface $candidate, ConstraintInterface $constraint): bool
    Checks if the candidate constraint is a subset of the given constraint.
  haveIntersections(ConstraintInterface $a, ConstraintInterface $b): bool
    Checks if two constraints have any intersection. Equivalent to $a->matches($b).
  compactConstraint(ConstraintInterface $constraint): ConstraintInterface
    Optimizes a complex multi-constraint by merging intervals. Note: This operation can be slow and may remove human-readable prettyConstraint information.
  get(ConstraintInterface $constraint): array
    Converts a constraint into an array of numeric intervals and branch constraints.
  clear(): void
    Clears the internal memoization cache for constraints.
```

### Composer Semver Methods

Source: https://github.com/composer/semver/blob/main/README.md

Provides methods for checking version satisfaction against constraints and sorting version arrays.

```APIDOC
Composer\Semver\Semver:
  satisfies(string $version, string $constraints): bool
    Checks if a given version satisfies the specified constraints.
  satisfiedBy(array $versions, string $constraint): array
    Filters an array of versions, returning only those that satisfy the constraint.
  sort(array $versions): array
    Sorts an array of version strings in ascending order.
  rsort(array $versions): array
    Sorts an array of version strings in descending order.
```

--------------------------------

### Composer Semver Comparator Methods

Source: https://github.com/composer/semver/blob/main/README.md

Provides static methods for comparing two version strings. Each method returns a boolean indicating the result of the comparison.

```APIDOC
Composer\Semver\Comparator:
  greaterThan(string $v1, string $v2): bool
    Compares if $v1 is greater than $v2.
  greaterThanOrEqualTo(string $v1, string $v2): bool
    Compares if $v1 is greater than or equal to $v2.
  lessThan(string $v1, string $v2): bool
    Compares if $v1 is less than $v2.
  lessThanOrEqualTo(string $v1, string $v2): bool
    Compares if $v1 is less than or equal to $v2.
  equalTo(string $v1, string $v2): bool
    Compares if $v1 is equal to $v2.
  notEqualTo(string $v1, string $v2): bool
    Compares if $v1 is not equal to $v2.

Example:
Comparator::greaterThan('1.25.0', '1.24.0'); // Returns true
```
