#example:
my_list = [1, 4, 5, 3, 6, 9]
print(select_within_bounds(my_list))
print(select_within_bounds(my_list, 3, 8))
print(select_within_bounds(my_list, lower=3))
print(select_within_bounds(my_list, upper=8))
print(select_within_bounds(my_list, lower=3,upper=8))

#results in 
[1, 4, 5, 3, 6, 9]
[4, 5, 3, 6]
[4, 5, 3, 6, 9]
[1, 4, 5, 3, 6]
[4, 5, 3, 6]
