Map() Feature

Hey DJ, Is there a map feature in ARC? I have a voltage divider setup to measure the battery voltage and i would like to show the voltage on my Omnibot's LCD. Now the value is 0-10v in stead of 5v so i would like to map the ADC value from 0-255(is 255 the max value of the EZ-B?) to 0-10v.
