title: Why are exclusiveMinimum and exclusiveMaximum keywords needed in JSON?
body: <p>Instead of writing </p>
  
  <pre><code>{
    "type": "number",
    "minimum": 0,
    "maximum": 100,
    "exclusiveMaximum": true
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>why can't we write ?</p>
  
  <pre><code>{
    "type": "number",
    "minimum": 0,
    "maximum": 101
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I understand the first one gives the better readability in terms of range for any checks(ex. temperature, height etc... ), but 2nd one will get the job done.</p>
  
  <p>Is there any other specific purpose ?</p>
  
  <p><strong>UPDATE: blex and jfriend00 responses make the context clear for usage and makes sense on why those keywords would come handy when defining a schema</strong></p>
  
  <p><strong>Is there any way i can close this question now ?</strong></p>
