Description:
A
MatrixMap is form of
Mapping which performs a general linear transformation. Each set
of input coordinates, regarded as a column-vector, are pre-multiplied by a matrix
(whose elements are specified when the MatrixMap is created) to give a new
column-vector containing the output coordinates. If appropriate, the inverse
transformation may also be performed.
