how to use the clamp function from the date-fns library in typescript

To use the clamp function from the date-fns library in TypeScript, you first need to make sure that you have installed the library by running:

index.ts
npm install date-fns

2 lines

Then you can import the clamp function from the library in your TypeScript file as follows:

index.ts
import { clamp } from 'date-fns';
34 chars
2 lines

The clamp function takes three arguments:

  • The first argument is the value you want to clamp
  • The second argument is the lower bound of the range you want to clamp the value to
  • The third argument is the upper bound of the range you want to clamp the value to

Here's an example usage of the clamp function:

index.ts
const value = 10;
const lowerBound = 0;
const upperBound = 5;

const clampedValue = clamp(value, lowerBound, upperBound);

// clampedValue will be 5, because it's the closest value to 10 that falls within the range defined by the lower and upper bounds

In this example, the value 10 is outside of the range defined by the lowerBound of 0 and the upperBound of 5. The clamp function will return the closest value to 10 that falls within the range, which is 5.
