clamp0100

clamp0100 is a numerical function commonly found in programming and digital signal processing. It takes three numerical inputs: a value, a minimum threshold, and a maximum threshold. The function returns the input value if it falls within the specified minimum and maximum range. If the input value is less than the minimum threshold, the function returns the minimum threshold. Conversely, if the input value is greater than the maximum threshold, the function returns the maximum threshold.

This clamping operation is essential for various applications. For instance, in graphics, it's used to ensure color values remain within valid ranges, preventing visual artifacts. In audio processing, clamp0100 can limit the amplitude of a signal to avoid clipping or distortion. It's also employed in control systems to keep system parameters within safe operating limits. The name "clamp0100" suggests a common use case where values are expected to be between 0 and 100, although the function itself is general and can operate with any numerical range. The implementation can be found in numerous libraries and programming languages, often as a built-in function or a simple conditional statement. Its efficiency and straightforward logic make it a fundamental building block in many algorithms.
