transformationincluding

Transformationincluding is not a widely recognized term in standard mathematical or computer science literature. In practice, it appears as a nonce phrase in informal discussions to describe a transformation that comes with additional included data, constraints, or accompanying operations. Because it is not formally defined, its exact meaning depends on context.

In geometry and algebra, a transformation typically denotes an action on a space, such as a translation,

Examples may include the use of homogeneous coordinates in graphics to represent translations alongside linear parts

Because transformationincluding is not standardized, readers should look for a formal definition within the specific text
