class:: Magnitude
summary:: Comparable value in a linear continuum
categories:: Math
description::
Magnitudes represent values along a linear continuum which can be compared against each other.
instancemethods::
method:: <
returns:: a link::Classes/Boolean:: whether the receiver is less than strong::aMagnitude::.
method:: <=
returns:: a link::Classes/Boolean:: whether the receiver is less than or equal to strong::aMagnitude::.
method:: >
returns:: a link::Classes/Boolean:: whether the receiver is greater than strong::aMagnitude::.
method:: >=
returns:: a link::Classes/Boolean:: whether the receiver is greater than or equal to strong::aMagnitude::.
method:: min
returns:: the minimum of the receiver and aMagnitude.
method:: max
returns:: the maximum of the receiver and aMagnitude.
method:: clip
If the receiver is less than minVal then answer minVal, else if the receiver is greater than maxVal then answer maxVal, else answer the receiver.
method:: inclusivelyBetween
returns:: whether the receiver is greater than or equal to minVal and less than or equal to maxVal.
method:: exclusivelyBetween
returns:: whether the receiver is greater than minVal and less than maxVal.
