            After clipping and division by <span class="emphasis"><em>w</em></span>,
            depth coordinates range from 
            <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" overflow="scroll">

            </mml:math>
            to 1,
            corresponding to the near and far clipping planes.
            Each viewport has an independent depth range specified as a linear mapping of the normalized
            depth coordinates in this range to window depth coordinates.
            Regardless of the actual depth buffer implementation,
            window coordinate depth values are treated as though they range
            from 0 through 1 (like color components).
            <code class="function">glDepthRangeIndexed</code> specifies a linear mapping of the normalized depth coordinates
            in this range to window depth coordinates for a specified viewport.
            Thus,
            the values accepted by <code class="function">glDepthRangeIndexed</code> are both clamped to this range
            before they are accepted.
        </p><p>
            The <em class="parameter"><code>index</code></em> parameter specifies the index of first viewport whose depth
            range to modify and must be less than the value of <code class="constant">GL_MAX_VIEWPORTS</code>.
            <em class="parameter"><code>nearVal</code></em> and <em class="parameter"><code>farVal</code></em> specify near and far values of the
            depth range for the specified viewport, respectively.
        </p><p>
            The setting of (0,1) maps the near plane to 0 and
            the far plane to 1.
            With this mapping,
            the depth buffer range is fully utilized.

            It is not necessary that the near plane distance be less than the far plane distance.
