if value is between two numbers

Question

I want to be able to test whether a value is within a number range. This is my jQuery code...

if ((year < 2099) && (year > 1990)){
    return \         


        

Answer 1

The fast and simple way to make this is to create a function like this:

function inRange(n, nStart, nEnd)
{
    if(n>=nStart && n<=nEnd) return true;
    else return false;
}

Then use that as follows:

inRange(500, 200, 1000) => this return true;

Or like this:

inRange(199, 200, 1000) => this return false;
