mapValue()

Convert a number from one range to its matching place in another range.

mapValue(value, minValue, maxValue, minResult, maxResult)

For example, 5 in the range 0 to 10 maps to 50 in the range 0 to 100. The number must lie within the source range; to allow numbers outside it, use map() instead.
