Number Line Transformer
Operations as geometric transformations
Every arithmetic operation is a transformation of the number line. Addition shifts, multiplication scales, exponentiation warps, logarithm compresses. Select an operation, adjust its parameter, and watch how each point maps to its image.
f(x) = x + 2
Each operation transforms the input points (white) to output points (gold). Addition shifts, multiplication scales, negation reflects, exponentiation compresses/stretches nonlinearly.
