Clamp Value

std::clamp keeps a value inside a minimum and maximum range.

clamp_value.cpp

#include <algorithm>
#include <iostream>

int main() {
    int score = ;

    int bounded = std::clamp(score, 0, 100);
    bool changed = bounded != score;

    std::cout << "score=" << score << std::endl;
    std::cout << "bounded=" << bounded << std::endl;
    std::cout << "changed=" << changed << std::endl;
    return 0;
}

#include <algorithm>
#include <iostream>

int main() {
    int score = ;

    int bounded = std::clamp(score, 0, 100);
    bool changed = bounded != score;

    std::cout << "score=" << score << std::endl;
    std::cout << "bounded=" << bounded << std::endl;
    std::cout << "changed=" << changed << std::endl;
    return 0;
}

#include <algorithm>
#include <iostream>

int main() {
    int score = ;

    int bounded = std::clamp(score, 0, 100);
    bool changed = bounded != score;

    std::cout << "score=" << score << std::endl;
    std::cout << "bounded=" << bounded << std::endl;
    std::cout << "changed=" << changed << std::endl;
    return 0;
}

clamp `std::clamp(value, low, high)` returns `low`, `high`, or the original value depending on the range.

bounds Bounds make invalid or extreme values fit a rule before later calculations use them.
