Description

(The page in question)

### [Filter range "in place"]

> Write a function filterRangeInPlace(arr, a, b) that gets an array arr and removes from it all values except those that are between a and b. The test is: a ≤ arr[i] ≤ b.

the 'between' in task description implies excluding numbers 1 and 4 so only 2 and 3 should be valid.

`let arr = [5, 3, 8, 1];`

`filterRangeInPlace(arr, 1, 4); // removed the numbers except from 1 to 4`

`alert( arr ); // [3, 1]`

Yet here we have 1 along with 3. The answer is also same as previous task filterRange. Please fix the wording or use an && operator in the solution.

Research direction
