isBetween
Test if a value is between two values.
Usage
var isBetween = require( '@stdlib/assert/is-between' );
isBetween( value, a, b[, left, right] )
Tests if a value
is between two values a
(left comparison value) and b
(right comparison value).
var bool = isBetween( 4, 3, 5 );
// returns true
bool = isBetween( 2, 3, 5 );
// returns false
bool = isBetween( 6, 3, 5 );
// returns false
By default, the function assumes that a
and b
are inclusive.
var bool = isBetween( 3, 3, 5 );
// returns true
bool = isBetween( 3, 3, 5, 'closed', 'closed' );
// returns true
bool = isBetween( 5, 3, 5 );
// returns true
bool = isBetween( 5, 3, 5, 'closed', 'closed' );
// returns true
To make a
and/or b
exclusive, set the respective arguments to 'open'
.
var bool = isBetween( 3, 3, 5, 'open', 'closed' );
// returns false
bool = isBetween( 5, 3, 5, 'closed', 'open' );
// returns false
Notes
-
If
a
andb
are inclusive, the comparison is equivalent toa <= v <= b
-
If
a
is exclusive andb
is inclusive, the comparison is equivalent toa < v <= b
-
If
a
is inclusive andb
is exclusive, the comparison is equivalent toa <= v < b
-
If
a
andb
are exclusive, the comparison is equivalent toa < v < b
-
If provided non-numeric values, comparisons are performed according to lexicographic order.
Examples
var randu = require( '@stdlib/random/base/randu' );
var round = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/round' );
var isBetween = require( '@stdlib/assert/is-between' );
var bool;
var a;
var b;
var v;
var i;
for ( i = 0; i < 100; i++ ) {
a = round( (randu()*10.0) + 5.0 );
b = round( (randu()*10.0) + 15.0 );
v = round( randu()*25.0 );
bool = isBetween( v, a, b, 'open', 'closed' );
console.log( '%d < %d <= %d: %s', a, v, b, bool.toString() );
