How about Failing instead of any of
Alternately, if you want a purer FP solution:
sub infix:clamp is looser(infix:..) (Num $x, Range $r) {
given $x {
when $x $r.min { $r.min }
when $x $r.max { $r.max }
default { $x }
}
}
...
take $foo clamp 100..200;

Sounds like a good idea for a CPAN module. You can already do
something similar with the subset keyword, though:
subset Percentage of Int
