Description | Normalizes a number from another range into a value between 0 and 1. Identical to map(value, low, high, 0, 1); Numbers outside the range are not clamped to 0 and 1, because out-of-range values are often intentional and useful.

value | float: The incoming value to be converted
low | float: Lower bound of the value's current range
high | float: Upper bound of the value's current range
