If there is a method with such name in Range(with equal meaning) - then it
seems like `clamping` will be the best solution here.
(as non-native speaker I don't feel this word is often used especially in
software development, but.. it seems like anyone who is writing in Swift
must be strong native English speaker/writer :-P I also mean all these
naming conversions, verb/noun, -ing/-ed/-able etc ;-) )
