The clamp() function in C++ boost library is found under the header 'boost/algorithm/clamp.hpp' contains two functions for "clamping" a value between a pair of boundary values. Syntax:
const T& clamp ( const T& val, const T& lo, const T& hi )
or 
const T& clamp ( const T& value, const T& low, const T& high, Pred p )
Parameters: The function accepts parameters as described below:
  • value: This specifies the value compared to.
  • low: This specifies the lower range.
    • high: This specifies the higher range.
    • p: This specifies the predicate function.
    Return Value: The function returns three values as described below:
    • It returns low if value is less than low.
    • It returns high if high is greater than value.
    • In all other cases, it returns value.
    Program-1: CPP
    // C++ program to implement the
    // above mentioned function
    
    #include <bits/stdc++.h>
    #include <boost/algorithm/clamp.hpp>
    using namespace std;
    
    // Drivers code
    int main()
    {
    
        int value = 5;
        int low = 10, high = 20;
    
        // Function used
        int ans
            = boost::algorithm::clamp(value, low, high);
    
        cout << ans;
        return 0;
    }
    
    Output:
    10
    
    Program-2: CPP
    // C++ program to implement the
    // above mentioned function
    
    #include <bits/stdc++.h>
    #include <boost/algorithm/clamp.hpp>
    using namespace std;
    
    // Drivers code
    int main()
    {
    
        int value = 25;
        int low = 10, high = 20;
    
        // Function used
        int ans
            = boost::algorithm::clamp(value, low, high);
        cout << ans;
        return 0;
    }
    
    Output:
    20
    
    Program-3: CPP
    // C++ program to implement the
    // above mentioned function
    
    #include <bits/stdc++.h>
    #include <boost/algorithm/clamp.hpp>
    using namespace std;
    
    // Drivers code
    int main()
    {
    
        int value = 15;
        int low = 10, high = 20;
    
        // Function used
        int ans
            = boost::algorithm::clamp(value, low, high);
        cout << ans;
        return 0;
    }
    
    Output:
    15
