   one very annoying thing when coding a 2d grapher is the reversed y-axies in programer idiot's coordinate. In svg, either u do (ymin+ymax-y) for every y, or, g.setAttribute("transform", `translate(0 ${ymin+ymax-y}) scale(1 ${-1})` but, ur text get flipped. what a f'ing pain.

      why programer's canvas reverse y-axes? not looking into history, but i surmise, cuz 'was just easy in the early days, like unix fuck and opengl fuck. Its ok to realize necessity, but the programer idiots is such that they see it as good. Every lang design, u run into such idiotic problems.
