Function Transformation Visualizer implementation

Binding contract

This record describes what an executable surface must bind and validate. It does not claim that a public calculator, package, or production route is deployed.

Effect

Computation or source lookup only

Input and validation requirements

Setting b=0 with the parent function f(u)=1/u makes the transformed argument identically zero and causes division by zero for every x. The visualizer should reject the input or display an undefined-function state rather than attempting a finite plot.

Required corrections

No binding erratum is attached to this unique-name record. Implementers must still preserve the declared units, domain, and failure behavior.

Inspectable interface fixture

The sample below is evidence for interface and validation tests, not a production implementation.
