AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a geometric transformation example formed by u^2-v^2 and 2uv, showcasing the combination of algebra and geometry. Start by drawing a square, then generate sequences of vertical and horizontal line segments inside the square, marking points along these segments, and use these points to create loci, ultimately presenting the transformation trajectories of u and v, reflecting the geometric significance of quadratic form transformations and coordinate system conversion.
