Re: [Python-ideas] Consider adding clip or clamp function to math

One could argue that:

clamp(NaN, x,x)

Is clearly defined as x. But that would require special casing, and, "equality" is a bit of an ephemeral concept with floats, so better to return NaN.

Yeah, it would only apply to a vanishingly small part of the possible parameter space, so I don't think it would be worth the bother. -- Greg
