I think the current description is wrong and that rows and columns have
been interchanged? The entries defined by this range are all in the row
above (@-1) the current row. The columns chosen are two to the left of
the current column up to the current column.
If you wish to re-word, maybe:
This range expands to three elements, all on the row above the current
row, starting with the column two to the left of the current column.
