BUILT-IN MATHEMATICA SYMBOL

RescalingTransform

gives a TransformationFunction that rescales the region with coordinate ranges

to

, etc. to the region with coordinate ranges

to

, etc.

RescalingTransform

gives a TransformationFunction that rescales to the unit square, cube, etc.

MORE INFORMATION

RescalingTransform gives a TransformationFunction which can be applied to vectors.

RescalingTransform works in any number of dimensions. In 2D, it transforms rectangles to rectangles, and in 3D cuboids to cuboids.

Properties & Relations (3)

The inverse of RescalingTransform

is given by RescalingTransform

:

This shows that

and

are inverses:

Rescaling transformation is a composition of scaling and translation:

Rescale provides a scalar version of RescalingTransform:
