I rarely end up doing that... but will if it's that easy.  What I mean is
that I would more usually have:

foobool = isInRange(intvar);

And then I would have elsewhere:

BOOL isInRange(int i)
{
  // code that manipulates i, possibly grabbing some system variables,
  // such as the screen width, for example.

  return i < 5;
}

Same effect on coding, as far as I'm concerned.

My two cents.  :-)
