Description:: Linear conversion of a value from one set to another
This function became obsolete with the introduction of linearConversion.
Execution:: call
Groups:: Math

Syntax:: [[minFrom, maxFrom], value, [minTo, maxTo]] call BIS_fnc_linearConversion
Parameters:: minFrom: Number
: maxFrom: Number
: value: Number
: minTo: Number
: maxTo: Number
Return Value:: Number value adapted to [minTo, maxTo] range

Example 1:: [[-50, 50], -50, [0, 1]] call BIS_fnc_linearConversion; // returns 0 [[-50, 50], 0, [0, 1]] call BIS_fnc_linearConversion; // returns 0.5 [[-50, 50], +50, [0, 1]] call BIS_fnc_linearConversion; // returns 1

-(A3 0.50) It is recommended to use [[linearConversion]] instead of [[BIS_fnc_linearConversion]]:
-<code>[[linearConversion]] [0,100,50,0,50,true]; //same as [[0,100],50,[0,50]] [[call]] [[BIS_fnc_linearConversion]]</code>
