PHP | imageaffinematrixget() function

The imageaffinematrixget() function is an inbuilt function in PHP which is used to get an affine transformation matrix. Affine is a geometric transformation operation involving matrices, often used in linear algebra and computer graphics.
Syntax:

array imageaffinematrixget( int $type, mixed $options )

Parameters:This function accepts two parameters as mentioned above and described below: 

• $type: It specifies an integer corresponding to one of IMG_AFFINE constants. 
  List of all IMG_AFFINE constants are given below: 
  • IMG_AFFINE_TRANSLATE (0)
  • IMG_AFFINE_SCALE (1)
  • IMG_AFFINE_ROTATE (2)
  • IMG_AFFINE_SHEAR_HORIZONTAL (3)
  • IMG_AFFINE_SHEAR_VERTICAL (4)
• $options: It specifies the options to be converted into array which can be array or float.

Return Value: This function returns an affine transformation matrix (an array with keys 0 to 5 and float values) or FALSE on failure.
Below given programs illustrate the imageaffinematrixget() function in PHP: 
Program 1 (Creating from a array):

php

<?php
// Create an array
$arr = array('x' => 5, 'y' => 8);

// Get the image affine matrix
$matrix = imageaffinematrixget(IMG_AFFINE_TRANSLATE, $arr);

// Output the matrix
print("<pre>".print_r($matrix, true)."</pre>");
?>

Output:

Array
(
    [0] => 1
    [1] => 0
    [2] => 0
    [3] => 1
    [4] => 5
    [5] => 8
)

Program 2 (Creating from an angle):

php

<?php
// Create an angle
$angle = 300;

// Get the image affine matrix
$matrix = imageaffinematrixget(IMG_AFFINE_SHEAR_HORIZONTAL, $angle);

// Output the matrix
print("<pre>".print_r($matrix, true)."</pre>");
?>

Output:

Array
(
    [0] => 1
    [1] => 0
    [2] => -1.7320508075689
    [3] => 1
    [4] => 0
    [5] => 0
)
