27   operation
28       This method returns the name of the operation performed by the
29       operator.  This depends not only on the operator itself but its
30       context:
31
32       In a bracketed character class
33               '-' => 'range',
34               '^' => 'inversion',
35
36       In an extended bracketed character class
37               '&' => 'intersection',
38               '+' => 'union',
39               '|' => 'union',
40               '-' => 'subtraction',
41               '^' => 'symmetric_difference',
42               '!' => 'complement',
43
44       Outside any sort of bracketed character class
45               '|' => 'alternation',
