** Description:   This is the implementation file for a bounds checking
 *                function. This function takes as parameters 3 integers,
 *                the number to validate, a minimum, and a maximum.
 *                The function will return true if the function is in
 *                the range of the min and max inclusive. If the input
 *                number is out of range, the function will return false
 *                and print an error message. This is used in conjunction
 *                with the integerValidation function to validate an input
 *                as an integer that is in the correct range of inputs.
