map()
The `map()` function in p5.js is a powerful tool for transforming a number from one range to another, which is essential for creative coding projects where values need to be calibrated to fit specific dimensions, colors, or other parameters. For example, in a graphics project where you want to adjust the brightness of a color based on user input, `map()` can convert that input range into a valid color range. Understanding how to use `map()` opens up new possibilities for interactive and dynamic visual experiences.
