Java - limit number between min and max

Question

I want to return the number as long as it falls within a limit, else return the maximum or minimum value of the limit. I can do this with a combination of Math.min

Answer 1

I understand this was asked for Java. In Android world, it's common to use Kotlin and Java combined. In case some Kotlin user reached here (just like me), then they can use coerceIn extension function:

Kotlin Code:

println(10.coerceIn(1, 100)) // 10
println(10.coerceIn(1..100)) // 10
println(0.coerceIn(1, 100)) // 1
println(500.coerceIn(1, 100)) // 100
