This method takes a numerical value and ensures it fits in a given numerical range. If the
number is smaller than the minimum required by the range, then the minimum of the range will
be returned. If the number is higher than the maximum allowed by the range then the maximum
of the range will be returned.

You should also consider [migrating](/jetpack/androidx/migrate) existing projects to AndroidX. To find the AndroidX class that maps to this deprecated class, see the AndroidX support library [class\n| mappings](/jetpack/androidx/migrate/class-mappings).\n\n\n`\npublic\n\n\nclass\nMathUtils\n`\n\n\n`\n\nextends Object\n\n\n`\n\n`\n\n\n`\n\n|---|-----------------------------------|\n| java.lang.Object ||\n| ↳ | android.support.v4.math.MathUtils |\n\n\u003cbr /\u003e\n\n*** ** * ** ***\n\nA utility class providing functions useful for common mathematical operations.\n\nSummary\n-------\n\n| ### Public methods ||\n|------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|\n| ` static double` | ` `[clamp](/reference/android/support/v4/math/MathUtils#clamp(double, double, double))`(double value, double min, double max) ` This method takes a numerical value and ensures it fits in a given numerical range. |\n| ` static float` | ` `[clamp](/reference/android/support/v4/math/MathUtils#clamp(float, float, float))`(float value, float min, float max) ` This method takes a numerical value and ensures it fits in a given numerical range. |\n| ` static int` | ` `[clamp](/reference/android/support/v4/math/MathUtils#clamp(int, int, int))`(int value, int min, int max) ` This method takes a numerical value and ensures it fits in a given numerical range. |\n\n| ### Inherited methods |\n|-----------------------|---|\n| From class ` java.lang.Object ` |-------------------|-------------------------------| | ` Object` | ` clone() ` | | ` boolean` | ` equals(Object arg0) ` | | ` void` | ` finalize() ` | | ` final Class\u003c?\u003e` | ` getClass() ` | | ` int` | ` hashCode() ` | | ` final void` | ` notify() ` | | ` final void` | ` notifyAll() ` | | ` String` | ` toString() ` | | ` final void` | ` wait(long arg0, int arg1) ` | | ` final void` | ` wait(long arg0) ` | | ` final void` | ` wait() ` | ||\n\nPublic methods\n--------------\n\n### clamp\n\nadded in [version 26.1.0](/topic/libraries/support-library/revisions) \n\n```\ndouble clamp (double value, \n double min, \n double max)\n```\n\nThis method takes a numerical value and ensures it fits in a given numerical range.
