Re: Transformations

thats a bit too general I'm afraid!

Do you not understand the meaning of the words translation, rotation, and transformation in the context of math? physics? Or is there some particular aspect of it that doesn't make sense to you?

help us help you!

Re: Transformations

which one would you want to accomplish all 3 if used once or twice?
