Transformations of Functions | Outlier.org

Learn about how functions shift vertically and horizontally. You’ll also see how this works using Desmos, a software system for learning math.

Kelsey Houston-Edwards is a freelance writer and mathematician who seeks to present math as a constantly evolving field, rather than a dead art. A 2016 AMS-AAAS Mass Media Fellow, she was a science journalist at the digital magazine NOVA Next. Kelsey is also a former writer/host of the YouTube show PBS Infinite Series. She earned her Bachelors of Arts (B.A.) in Philosophy and Mathematics from Reed College, and her Ph.D. in Mathematics from Cornell University.
