are there kotlin functions that constrain number parameters to a range?

[kingsley]

Something like number.coerceIn(min..max)?

[Hullaballoonatic]

yes exactly like that

[Hullaballoonatic]

it would be nice to have a syntax like var x: Int in a..b

[Hullaballoonatic]

as well if you could use .. like ..a and b.. to imply to infinity (or rather the max/min values of the data type)

[Hullaballoonatic]

or if i got everything i wished, then Ranges could use interval notation var x: Int in (a, b]

[Hullaballoonatic]

var y in ['a', 'z']

[Hullaballoonatic]

but of course that would interfere with the understanding of lists
