                  typename boost::mpl::identity< T >::type const & lo, 
                  typename boost::mpl::identity< T >::type const & hi, 
                  Pred p);

Description

Parameters:

hi

The upper bound of the range to be clamped to

lo

The lower bound of the range to be clamped to

p

A predicate to use to compare the values. p ( a, b ) returns a boolean.
