make a transformation matrix in python

To make a transformation matrix in Python, we can use the NumPy library. The transformation matrix is a square matrix which is used to transform or modify 2D or 3D objects. Here is an example code to make a 2D transformation matrix using NumPy:

main.py
import numpy as np

# define the scaling factor, rotation angle and translation vector
sx, sy = 2, 3  # scale in x and y directions
theta = np.pi / 4  # rotation angle in radians
tx, ty = 1, 2  # translation in x and y directions

# define the transformation matrix
T = np.array([
    [sx*np.cos(theta), -np.sin(theta), tx],
    [np.sin(theta), sy*np.cos(theta), ty],
    [0, 0, 1]
])

print(T)
395 chars
16 lines

In this example, we have defined the scaling factor, rotation angle and translation vector, which are used to create the transformation matrix T. The transformation matrix is defined as a 3x3 NumPy array, with the first row corresponding to the x-axis transformation, the second row corresponding to the y-axis transformation, and the third row corresponding to the homogeneous coordinate (which is always 0, 0, 1 for 2D transformations).

Note that this example code only shows one possible way to create a transformation matrix in Python, and there are many other possible transformations and ways of representing them in code.
