i feel stupid

Totally agreed. But I also think that the context (expected range) where this code is used is important.

In a=b cases, the range is basically range object with one value. and sum function looks for values inside the range object (which in this case is just one value), and sums them up.

Please correct me if i'm wrong.

How does this code handle a = b cases? How does this return the value of a or b in such cases.

proper, neat, obvious....

Clear and concise! I love it. Much cleaner than my own.

Nice one!

Elegant oneliner!
But sometimes ("in real life") - short route is much longer than the "muddy" one.

That is genius!
I forgot about min max and get it with if else. Great solution

Best solution!

ditto

Also you are missing a period after 'moon'
