If one has a linear transformation in functional form, it is easy to determine the transformation matrix A by simply transforming each of the vectors of the standard basis by T and then inserting the results into the columns of a matrix. In other words,
For example, the function is a linear transformation. Applying the above process (suppose that n = 2 in this case) reveals that
