+ * @name clamp
+ * @category Interval Helpers
+ * @summary Return a date bounded by the start and the end of the given interval
+ *
+ * @description
+ * Clamps a date to the lower bound with the start of the interval and the upper
+ * bound with the end of the interval.
+ *
+ * - When the date is less than the start of the interval, the start is returned.
+ * - When the date is greater than the end of the interval, the end is returned.
+ * - Otherwise the date is returned.
+ *
+ * @example
+ * // What is Mar, 21, 2021 bounded to an interval starting at Mar, 22, 2021 and ending at Apr, 01, 2021
+ * const result = clamp(new Date(2021, 2, 21), {
+ *   start: new Date(2021, 2, 22),
+ *   end: new Date(2021, 3, 1),
+ * })
+ * //=> Mon Mar 22 2021 00:00:00
+ *
+ * @param {Date | Number} date - the date to be bounded
+ * @param {Interval} interval - the interval to bound to
+ * @returns {Date} the date bounded by the start and the end of the interval
+ * @throws {TypeError} 2 arguments required
