count_in_range

Language/Type: PHP arrays
Author: Eric Roberts (added by Melissa Hovik on 2018/01/05)

Write a function named count_in_range that accepts parameters: an array of integers, a minimum integer, and a maximum integer. The function should return the number of elements in the array within the range of the given minimum and maximum values (inclusive).

For example, if the array $arr contains [28, 1, 17, 4, 41, 9, 59, 8, 31, 30, 25], the call of count_in_range($arr, 10, 30) should return 4. If the array is empty, return 0.

You may assume that the array passed is non-null and contains only integers. If the passed minimum value is greater than the passed maximum, your function should throw an Exception with the message, "Error: minumum must be less than or equal to maxiumum".

Function: Write a PHP function as described, not a complete program.
