Which integers lie strictly between -4 and -1, listed from least to greatest?

Erklärung

The only integers whose size falls between one and four and which still carry a minus sign are those of size three and size two, and among negatives the greater size is the lesser value, so the one of size three is listed first. Reversing the pair orders them by size alone, while bringing in -4 or -1 restores an endpoint that the word strictly rules out.
