         Range range2 = new Range("c", "n");
         Range range3 = range1.clip(range2);

        returnNullIfDisjoint - true to return null if ranges are disjoint, false to throw an exception
        Returns:

        IllegalArgumentException - if ranges does not overlap and returnNullIfDisjoint is false
        See Also:

        Parameters:
        min - minimum column
        max - maximum column
        Returns:
