resetMatrix()
The `resetMatrix()` function in p5.js resets the current transformation matrix to the identity matrix. This means all transformations applied to the canvas, such as translation, rotation, and scaling, are cleared. Creative coders use this function to ensure that subsequent drawings are not affected by previous transformations. For example, if you have applied multiple transformations and want to start fresh for a new drawing or UI element, `resetMatrix()` provides a clean slate.
