# clamped(to:) Returns a copy of this range clamped to the given limiting range. ``` func clamped(to limits: Range) -> Range ``` ## Parameters `limits` The range to clamp the bounds of this range. ## Return Value A new range clamped to the bounds of `limits`. ## Discussion The bounds of the result are always limited to the bounds of `limits`. For example: ``` let x: Range = 0..<20 print(x.clamped(to: 10..<1000)) // Prints "10..<20" ``` If the two ranges do not overlap, the result is an empty range within the bounds of `limits`. ``` let y: Range = 0..<5 print(y.clamped(to: 10..<1000)) // Prints "10..<10" ``` --- Copyright © 2026 Apple Inc.
