[PD] Data Structures - Scaling Visual Display - (1:10)(2:200)

[Miller Puckette]

There's a somewhat lame explanation in doc/4.data.structures/09.scaling.pd

-- in brief, 1:10 in the example below says that the value of x is restricted
to the range 1-10, and this range is linearly rescaled to values 2-200 in
the coordinates of the patch.

cheers
