- The original used rest arguments; the lab passes one array with at least one number. Dividing by 0 gives Infinity (null in JSON).
The function above is the implementation used by the lab. The lab validates JSON types and caps size before execution; include equivalent validation when accepting untrusted input in your application.

- Clamp a number to a range — Keep a number inside an inclusive minimum and maximum.
- Round to a number of digits — Apply decimal scaling and JavaScript rounding for display-oriented values.
- Add an ordinal suffix to a number — Append st, nd, rd or th to a positive integer.
