Medium ⏱ 12 min 62% acceptance ★★★★☆ 4.3

Write a function in_range(low, value, high) that returns True if value lies between low and high inclusive, using a single chained comparison expression (e.g. low <= value <= high), not two separate and-joined comparisons written with and.

Examples

Example 1
