Plasoids
When
a data structure has elements which are a function of a value of another
element, changing the value of one element alters the values of other parts of
the structure and may alter the form of the structure as a whole. This can
represented in a Baka Matrix as an arrow with a line through it.
The following diagram show this representation.
Such
a diagram might be used to show how a graphical function changes so that
f1(x)
may represent
a circle but then the values of the function are changed until a new function
is derived called f2(x)
which is a
parabola. The values are changed until the equation reaches f4(x).
Alternatively the functions could be changed in the following order:
f1(x)
f3(x)
f4(x)
The result of this is shown
in the next diagram for both scenarios.
The
change in the functional values can be written in a general form as
fi(x)
fn(x)
This shows that there are many functional transitions to another function. These
functional transitions can follow a chain of functions or multiple chains of
functions.
Sometimes
a plasoid will involve an intermediary structure which is use as a catalyst for
the change to occur. To show the use of this structure, a symbol representing
this structure is written over the plasoid symbol.
Here the data in the Baka Matrix [x] is change via the use
of the Baka Matrix [A] to transform the data into the format of the Baka Matrix
[y].
The use of these equations can aid in animation, encryption,
data transfer, multi-media and many other areas.
f([x])
and f([y])
could be data structures, database tables or even two different computer
systems.
