Chapter 134: gsap.utils.clamp()

Core Idea

clamp() constrains a number to a min/max range — below the minimum returns the minimum, above the maximum returns the maximum, otherwise the number is unchanged.

Reference Tables

Signature	Description
clamp(min, max, valueToClamp)	returns the clamped number immediately
clamp(min, max)	returns a reusable function that clamps whatever you feed it later

Code Examples

gsap.utils.clamp(0, 100, 105); // 100

const clampIt = gsap.utils.clamp(0, 100); // reusable
clampIt(105); // 100

• What it demonstrates: the two call signatures — immediate clamping vs. building a reusable clamper function.

• gsap.utils.pipe(): often chained with clamp() to sanitize a value before further processing.
