pplied to the points `x`.

    Parameters
    ----------
    x : array_like
        Points to be mapped. If `x` is a subtype of ndarray the subtype
        will be preserved.
    old, new : array_like
        The two domains that determine the map.  Each must (successfully)
        convert to 1-d arrays containing precisely two values.

    Returns
    -------
    x_out : ndarray
        Array of points of the same shape as `x`, after application of the
        linear map between the two domains.

    See Also
    --------
    getdomain, mapparms

    Notes
    -----
    Effectively, this implements:

    .. math::
        x\_out = new[0] + m(x - old[0])

    where

    .. math::
        m = \frac{new[1]-new[0]}{old[1]-old[0]}

    Examples
    --------
    >>> from numpy.polynomial import polyutils as pu
    >>> old_domain = (-1,1)
    >>> new_domain = (0,2*np.pi)
    >>> x = np.linspace(-1,1,6); x
    array([-1. , -0.6, -0.2,  0.2,  0.6,  1. ])
    >>> x_out = pu.mapdomain(x, old_domain, new_domain); x_out
    array([ 0.        ,  1.25663706,  2.51327412,  3.76991118,  5.02654825, # may vary
            6.28318531])
    >>> x - pu.mapdomain(x_out, new_domain, old_domain)
    array([0., 0., 0., 0., 0., 0.])

    Also works for complex numbers (and thus can be used to map any line in
    the complex plane to any other line therein).

    >>> i = complex(0,1)
    >>> old = (-1 - i, 1 + i)
    >>> new = (-1 + i, 1 - i)
    >>> z = np.linspace(old[0], old[1], 6); z
    array([-1. -1.j , -0.6-0.6j, -0.2-0.2j,  0.2+0.2j,  0.6+0.6j,  1. +1.j ])
    >>> new_z = pu.mapdomain(z, old, new); new_z
    array([-1.0+1.j , -0.6+0.6j, -0.2+0.2j,  0.2-0.2j,  0.6-0.6j,  1.0-1.j ]) # may vary
