Map range

From Rosetta Code
Jump to: navigation, search
Task
Map range
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
Given two ranges, [a1,a2] and [b1,b2]; then a value s in range [a1,a2] is linearly mapped to a value t in range [b1,b2] when:
t = b_1 + {(s - a_1)(b_2 - b_1) \over (a_2 - a_1)}

The task is to write a function/subroutine/... that takes two ranges and a real number, and returns the mapping of the real number from the first to the second range. Use this function to map values from the range [0, 10] to the range [-1, 0].

Extra credit: Show additional idiomatic ways of performing the mapping, using tools available to the language.

[edit] C++

This example defines a template function to handle the mapping, using two std::pair objects to define the source and destination ranges. It returns the provided value mapped into the target range.

It's not written efficiently; certainly, there can be fewer explicit temporary variables. The use of the template offers a choice in types for precision and accuracy considerations, though one area for improvement might be to allow a different type for intermediate calculations.

#include <iostream>
#include <utility>
 
template<typename tVal>
tVal map_value(std::pair<tVal,tVal> a, std::pair<tVal, tVal> b, tVal inVal)
{
tVal inValNorm = inVal - a.first;
tVal aUpperNorm = a.second - a.first;
tVal normPosition = inValNorm / aUpperNorm;
 
tVal bUpperNorm = b.second - b.first;
tVal bValNorm = normPosition * bUpperNorm;
tVal outVal = b.first + bValNorm;
 
return outVal;
}
 
int main()
{
std::pair<float,float> a(0,10), b(-1,0);
 
for(float value = 0.0; 10.0 >= value; ++value)
std::cout << "map_value(" << value << ") = " << map_value(a, b, value) << std::endl;
 
return 0;
}

Output:

map_value(0) = -1
map_value(1) = -0.9
map_value(2) = -0.8
map_value(3) = -0.7
map_value(4) = -0.6
map_value(5) = -0.5
map_value(6) = -0.4
map_value(7) = -0.3
map_value(8) = -0.2
map_value(9) = -0.1
map_value(10) = 0

Extra credit

First, a function literal replaces the mapping function specified by the basic task. This allows a simpler parameter signature and also allows things to be precomputed for efficiency. newMapRange checks the direction of the first range and if it is decreasing, reverses both ranges. This simplifies an out-of-range check in the function literal. Also, the slope and intercept of the linear function are computed. This allows the range mapping to use the slope intercept formula which is computationally more efficient that the two point formula.

Second, ", ok" is a Go idiom. It takes advantage of Go's multiple return values and multiple assignment to return a success/failure disposition. In the case of this task, the result t is undefined if the input s is out of range.

package main
 
import "fmt"
 
type rangeBounds struct {
b1, b2 float64
}
 
func newRangeMap(xr, yr rangeBounds) func(float64) (float64, bool) {
// normalize direction of ranges so that out-of-range test works
if xr.b1 > xr.b2 {
xr.b1, xr.b2 = xr.b2, xr.b1
yr.b1, yr.b2 = yr.b2, yr.b1
}
// compute slope, intercept
m := (yr.b2 - yr.b1) / (xr.b2 - xr.b1)
b := yr.b1 - m*xr.b1
// return function literal
return func(x float64) (y float64, ok bool) {
if x < xr.b1 || x > xr.b2 {
return 0, false // out of range
}
return m*x + b, true
}
}
 
func main() {
rm := newRangeMap(rangeBounds{0, 10}, rangeBounds{-1, 0})
for s := float64(-2); s <= 12; s += 2 {
t, ok := rm(s)
if ok {
fmt.Printf("s: %5.2f t: %5.2f\n", s, t)
} else {
fmt.Printf("s: %5.2f out of range\n", s)
}
}

[edit] Haskell

Rather than handling only floating point numbers, the mapping function takes any number implementing the Fractional typeclass, which in our example also includes exact Rational numbers.

import Data.Ratio
import Text.Printf
 
-- Map a value from the range [a1,a2] to the range [b1,b2]. We don't check
-- for empty ranges.
mapRange :: (Fractional a) => (a, a) -> (a, a) -> a -> a
mapRange (a1,a2) (b1,b2) s = b1+(s-a1)*(b2-b1)/(a2-a1)
 
main = do
-- Perform the mapping over floating point numbers.
putStrLn "---------- Floating point ----------"
mapM_ (\n -> prtD n . mapRange (0,10) (-1,0) $ fromIntegral n) [0..10]
 
-- Perform the same mapping over exact rationals.
putStrLn "---------- Rationals ----------"
mapM_ (\n -> prtR n . mapRange (0,10) (-1,0) $ n%1) [0..10]
 
where prtD :: PrintfType r => Integer -> Double -> r
prtD n x = printf "%2d -> %6.3f\n" n x
prtR :: PrintfType r => Integer -> Rational -> r
prtR n x = printf "%2d -> %s\n" n (show x)

Output:

[edit] Icon and Unicon

 
record Range(a, b)
 
# note, we force 'n' to be real, which means recalculation will
# be using real numbers, not integers
procedure remap (range1, range2, n : real)
if n < range2.a | n > range2.b then fail # n out of given range
return range1.a + (n - range2.a) * (range1.b - range1.a) / (range2.b - range2.a)
end
 
procedure range_string (range)
return "[" || range.a || ", " || range.b || "]"
end
 
procedure main ()
range1 := Range (0, 10)
range2 := Range (-1, 0)
# if i is out of range1, then 'remap' fails, so only valid changes are written
every i := -2 to 12 do {
if m := remap (range2, range1, i)
then write ("Value " || i || " in " || range_string (range1) ||
" maps to " || m || " in " || range_string (range2))
}
end
 

Icon does not permit the type declaration, as Unicon does. For Icon, replace 'remap' with:

 
procedure remap (range1, range2, n)
n *:= 1.0
if n < range2.a | n > range2.b then fail # n out of given range
return range1.a + (n - range2.a) * (range1.b - range1.a) / (range2.b - range2.a)
end

Value 0 in [0, 10] maps to -1.0 in [-1, 0]
Value 1 in [0, 10] maps to -0.9 in [-1, 0]

NB. this version precomputes the scaling ratio

Example use:

   2 4 maprange 5 11 (2.718282 3 3.141592)
7.15485 8 8.42478

or

   adjust=:2 4 maprange 5 11 NB. save the derived function as a named entity
adjust 2.718282 3 3.141592
7.15485 8 8.42478

Required example:

   0 10 maprange _1 0 i.11
_1 _0.9 _0.8 _0.7 _0.6 _0.5 _0.4 _0.3 _0.2 _0.1 0

[edit] Java

public class Range {

}
}
 
public static double mapRange(double a1, double a2, double b1, double b2, double s){
return b1 + ((s - a1)*(b2 - b1))/(a2 - a1);
}
}

Output:

0.0 in [0, 10] maps to -1.0 in [-1, 0].
1.0 in [0, 10] maps to -0.9 in [-1, 0].
2.0 in [0, 10] maps to -0.8 in [-1, 0].
3.0 in [0, 10] maps to -0.7 in [-1, 0].
4.0 in [0, 10] maps to -0.6 in [-1, 0].
5.0 in [0, 10] maps to -0.5 in [-1, 0].
6.0 in [0, 10] maps to -0.4 in [-1, 0].
7.0 in [0, 10] maps to -0.30000000000000004 in [-1, 0].
8.0 in [0, 10] maps to -0.19999999999999996 in [-1, 0].
9.0 in [0, 10] maps to -0.09999999999999998 in [-1, 0].
10.0 in [0, 10] maps to 0.0 in [-1, 0].

The differences in 7, 8, and 9 come from double math. Similar issues show even when using float types.

[edit] REXX

(The different versions don't differ idiomaticly but just in style.)

All program versions could be made more robust by checking if the high and low ends of rangeA aren't equal.

  6  maps to  -0.4
  7  maps to  -0.3
  8  maps to  -0.2

end
 
11.times do |s|
s *= 1.0 # force floating point
print s, " maps to ", map_range((0..10), (-1..0), s), "\n"

Numeric#quo acts like Numeric#/ but gives more precise result when both operands are Integers.

Output using floating-point arithmetic:

0 maps to -1.0

8 maps to -0.19999999999999996
9 maps to -0.09999999999999998
10 maps to 0.0

To use rational arithmetic, delete s *= 1.0 and either require 'rational', or use Ruby 1.9 (which has Rational in the core library).

Output using rational arithmetic:

0 maps to -1/1
1 maps to -9/10

[edit] Ursala

The function f is defined using pattern matching and substitution, taking a pair of pairs of interval endpoints and a number as parameters, and returning a number.

#import flo
 
f((("a1","a2"),("b1","b2")),"s") = plus("b1",div(minus("s","a1"),minus("a2","a1")))
 
#cast %eL
 
test = f* ((0.,10.),(-1.,0.))-* ari11/0. 10.

output:

<
   -1.000000e+00,
   -9.000000e-01,
   -8.000000e-01,
   -7.000000e-01,
   -6.000000e-01,
   -5.000000e-01,
   -4.000000e-01,
   -3.000000e-01,
   -2.000000e-01,
   -1.000000e-01,
   0.000000e+00>

A more idiomatic way is to define f as a second order function

f(("a1","a2"),("b1","b2")) "s" = ...

with the same right hand side as above, so that it takes a pair of intervals and returns a function mapping numbers in one interval to numbers in the other.

An even more idiomatic way is to use the standard library function plin, which takes an arbitrarily long list of interval endpoints and returns a piecewise linear interpolation function.
