As far as I understand, the matrix



$$
beginbmatrix
1 & 2 & 3 \
4 & 5 & 6 \
7 & 8 & 9 \
endbmatrix
$$



refers to a linear transformation of the unit vectors in 3D space, where the $hati$ unit vector is mapped to



$$
beginbmatrix
1 \
4 \
7 \
endbmatrix
$$



the $hatj$ unit vector is mapped to



$$
beginbmatrix
2 \
5 \
8 \
endbmatrix
$$



and the $hatk$ unit vector is mapped to



$$
beginbmatrix
3 \
6 \
9 \
endbmatrix
$$



So, what does it mean when a matrix consists of functions and not scalars, such as this



$$
beginbmatrix
x & x^2 & x^3 \
y & y^2 & y^3 \
z & z^2 & z^3 \
endbmatrix
$$



What kind of transformation/mapping occurs for the unit vectors?
