Issue #10594 has been updated by Yukihiro Matsumoto.


I accept the idea of `#clamp` as `Comparable#clamp(min, max)`.
It would not accept ranges (for now).

Feature #10594: Comparable#clamp

----------------------------------------
This is basically a re-opening of the feature request of issue#4573 (https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/4574), which was closed due a naming debate.

It seems the standard naming for restricting a number to a specified range is indeed 'clamp'.  (1)(2)(3)

As such, can we use Yusuke Endoh's original patch with the naming adjustments?  If so, I can provide accordingly.

Cheers.
