Proposed resolution:

This wording is relative to N4582.

1. Edit [alg.clamp] as indicated:

   template<class T>
     constexpr const T& clamp(const T& v, const T& lo, const T& hi);
   template<class T, class Compare>
     constexpr const T& clamp(const T& v, const T& lo, const T& hi, Compare comp);
   

   -1- Requires: The value of lo shall be no greater than hi. For the first form, type T shall be LessThanComparable (Table 18).

   -2- Returns: lo if v is less than lo, hi if hi is less than v, otherwise vThe larger value of v and lo if v is smaller than hi, otherwise the smaller value of v and hi.

   -3- NoteRemarks: If NaN is avoided, T can be a floating point type Returns the first argument when it is equivalent to one of the boundary arguments.

   -4- Complexity: At most two comparisons.

Reworded p3 slightly.

In Jacksonville (2016), P0025R0 was voted in instead of the intended P0025R1. This report contains the necessary mending along with two other improvements.

This report:

• adds the precondition that misses from P0025R0 but is in P0025R1,

• corrects the returns: specification that contains an extraneous condition,

• replaces the now superfluous remark with a note on usage of clamp with float or double.

Thanks to Carlo Assink and David Gaarenstroom for making us aware of the extraneous condition in the returns: specification and for suggesting the fix and to Jeffrey Yasskin for suggesting to add a note like p3.
