std::clamp - cppreference.com

template< class T > constexpr const T& clamp( const T& v, const T& lo, const T& hi );

(1) (since C++17) template< class T, class Compare > constexpr const T& clamp( const T& v, const T& lo, const T& hi, Compare comp ); (2) (since C++17)

If the value of v is within [lo, hi], returns v; otherwise returns the nearest boundary.

1)

Uses

operator<(until C++20)std::less{}(since C++20)

to compare the values.

2) Uses the comparison function comp to compare the values.

If lo is greater than hi, the behavior is undefined.

â If NaN is avoided, T can be a floating-point type.

[edit] Parameters v - the value to clamp lo, hi - the boundaries to clamp v to comp - comparison function object (i.e. an object that satisfies the requirements of Compare) which returns true if the first argument is less than the second.

The signature of the comparison function should be equivalent to the following:

bool cmp(const Type1& a, const Type2& b);

While the signature does not need to have const&, the function must not modify the objects passed to it and must be able to accept all values of type (possibly const) Type1 and Type2 regardless of value category (thus, Type1& is not allowed, nor is Type1 unless for Type1 a move is equivalent to a copy(since C++11)).
The types Type1 and Type2 must be such that an object of type T can be implicitly converted to both of them.

[edit] Return value

Reference to lo if v is less than lo, reference to hi if hi is less than v, otherwise reference to v.

[edit] Complexity 1)

At most two comparisons using

operator<(until C++20)std::less{}(since C++20)

2) At most two applications of the comparison function comp.

[edit] Possible implementation clamp (1)

template<class T>
constexpr const T& clamp(const T& v, const T& lo, const T& hi)
{
    return clamp(v, lo, hi, less{});
}

clamp (2)

template<class T, class Compare>
constexpr const T& clamp(const T& v, const T& lo, const T& hi, Compare comp)
{
    return comp(v, lo) ? lo : comp(hi, v) ? hi : v;
}

[edit] Notes

Capturing the result of

std::clamp

by reference produces a dangling reference if one of the parameters is a temporary and that parameter is returned:

int n = -1;
const int& r = std::clamp(n, 0, 255); // r is dangling

If v compares equivalent to either bound, returns a reference to v, not the bound.

[edit] Example

#include <algorithm>
#include <cstdint>
#include <iomanip>
#include <iostream>
 
int main()
{
    std::cout << "[raw] "
                 "[" << INT8_MIN << ',' << INT8_MAX << "] "
                 "[0," << UINT8_MAX << "]\n";
 
    for (const int v : {-129, -128, -1, 0, 42, 127, 128, 255, 256})
        std::cout << std::setw(4) << v
                  << std::setw(11) << std::clamp(v, INT8_MIN, INT8_MAX)
                  << std::setw(8) << std::clamp(v, 0, UINT8_MAX) << '\n';
}

Output:

[raw] [-128,127] [0,255]
-129       -128       0
-128       -128       0
  -1         -1       0
   0          0       0
  42         42      42
 127        127     127
 128        127     128
 255        127     255
 256        127     255
