Question

I tried searching, but due to the nature of my question, I was unable to find something satisfactory.

My problem is the following: I am trying to map numbers ranging fro

Answer 1

// Given a value from intervalA, returns a mapped value from intervalB.
function intervalicValueMap(intervalA, intervalB, valueIntervalA) {
    var valueIntervalB = (valueIntervalA - intervalA[0]) * (intervalB[1] - intervalB[0]) 
                            / (intervalA[1] - intervalA[0]) + intervalB[0];

    valueIntervalB = Math.round(valueIntervalB); // Ommit rounding if not needed.
    return valueIntervalB;
}

var intervalA = [100, 200];
var intervalB = [1, 10];
var valueIntervalA = 170;
var valueIntervalB = intervalicValueMap(intervalA, intervalB, valueIntervalA);

console.log(valueIntervalB); // Logs 7
