function clamp(value: number, minimum: number, maximum: number): number;
Parameters
value
(number
): The number to clamp.minimum
(number
): The minimum bound to clamp the number.maximum
(number

): The clamped number within the specified bounds.
Examples
typescript
import { clamp } from 'js-utils-es/math';
const result1 = clamp(10, 5); // result1 will be 5, as 10 is clamped to the bound 5
const result2 = clamp(10, 5, 15); // result2 will be 10, as it is within the bounds 5 and 15
const result3 = clamp(2, 5, 15); // result3 will be 5, as 2 is clamped to the lower bound 5
const result4 = clamp(20, 5, 15); // result4 will be 15, as 20 is clamped to the upper bound 15
