Returns a normalized value considering the given range. This is the opposite of [method lerp].
Returns an interpolation or extrapolation factor considering the range specified in [code]from[/code] and [code]to[/code], and the interpolated value specified in [code]weight[/code]. The returned value will be between [code]0.0[/code] and [code]1.0[/code] if [code]weight[/code] is between [code]from[/code] and [code]to[/code] (inclusive). If [code]weight[/code] is located outside this range, then an extrapolation factor will be returned (return value lower than [code]0.0[/code] or greater than [code]1.0[/code]).

# The interpolation ratio in the `lerp()` call below is 0.75.
var middle = lerp(20, 30, 0.75)
# `middle` is now 27.5.
# Now, we pretend to have forgotten the original ratio and want to get it back.
var ratio = inverse_lerp(20, 30, 27.5)
# `ratio` is now 0.75.

Linearly interpolates between two values by a normalized value. This is the opposite of [method inverse_lerp].
Linearly interpolates between two values by the factor defined in [code]weight[/code]. To perform interpolation, [code]weight[/code] should be between [code]0.0[/code] and [code]1.0[/code] (inclusive). However, values outside this range are allowed and can be used to perform [i]extrapolation[/i].

lerp(0, 4, 0.75) # Returns 3.0

See also [method inverse_lerp] which performs the reverse of this operation. To perform eased interpolation with [method lerp], combine it with [method ease] or [method smoothstep].

<description>
Linearly interpolates between two angles (in radians) by a normalized value.
Similar to [method lerp], but interpolates correctly when the angles wrap around [constant @GDScript.TAU].
