# Clamp To An Endless Range
|
||||
|
||||
The
|
||||
[`Comparable#clamp`](https://ruby-doc.org/3.3.6/Comparable.html#method-i-clamp)
|
||||
method allows us to specify the bounds of a value we want. If the target value
|
||||
is between the bounds, then we get that value. Otherwise, we gets the nearest
|
||||
end of the bounds.
|
||||
|
||||
We can even pass a range to `#clamp` instead of separate lower and upper bound
|
||||
values. Because Ruby has beginless and endless ranges, this gives us the
|
||||
ergonomics to, say, clamp to any non-negative value with a `0..` endless range.
|
||||
|
||||
Here is what that looks like:
|
||||
|
||||
```ruby
|
||||
> 22.clamp(0..)
|
||||
=> 22
|
||||
> (-33).clamp(0..)
|
||||
=> 0
|
||||
> 0.clamp(0..)
|
||||
=> 0
|
||||
```
