How to properly represent a matrix function.
$begingroup$
Given the function $f_{h}(x,y,z)=(x-z,y+hz,x+y+3z)$, what is the correct way to represent the matrix function in respect to the standard basis?
With the representation theorem, I would write the matrix in columns as:
$$F_{h|S_3}=(f_h(e_1)|{S_3} quad f_h(e_2)|{S_3} quad f_h(e_3)|{S_3})=begin{bmatrix}1 & 0 & 1\ 0 & 1 & 1\ -1 & h & 3end{bmatrix}$$
But in my textbook it is written in rows as:
$$F_{h|S_3}=(f_h(e_1)|{S_3} quad f_h(e_2)|{S_3} quad f_h(e_3)|{S_3})=begin{bmatrix}1 & 0 & -1\ 0 & 1 & h\ 1 & 1 & 3end{bmatrix}$$
What is the difference between them?

The correct way to represent the function $f_h$ in matrix form depends on the convention that you want to use to represent it. Let $(x,y,z) in mathbb{R}^3$. The matrix which you computed is useful for expressing $f_h$ as $$f_h(x,y,z) = begin{bmatrix} x& y & z end{bmatrix} begin{bmatrix}
1& 0 & 1 \
0 & 1& 1\
-1 & h & 3
end{bmatrix}.$$ We can verify this by expanding the matrix product:
begin{align}
begin{bmatrix} x& y & z end{bmatrix} begin{bmatrix}
1& 0 & 2 \
0 & 1& 1\
-1 & h & 3
end{bmatrix} &= begin{bmatrix}
x cdot 1 + y cdot 0 + z cdot (-1) \
x cdot 0 + y cdot 1 + z cdot h \
x cdot 1 + y cdot 1 + z cdot 3
end{bmatrix} \ &= begin{bmatrix}
x - z & y + hz & x + y + 3z end{bmatrix}.
end{align} The result is a $1 times 3$ matrix, which we can interpret as a row vector in $mathbb{R}^3$.
The matrix written in your textbook is useful for the following representation:
$$f_h(x,y,z) = begin{bmatrix}
1& 0 & -1 \
0 & 1& h\
1 & 1 & 3
end{bmatrix} begin{bmatrix}
x \ y \ z end{bmatrix} = begin{bmatrix} x-z \ y + hz \ x + y + 3z end{bmatrix}.$$ The result is a $3 times 1 $ matrix, which we can regard as a column vector in $mathbb{R}^3$.
The two representations look different in the sense that the former yields a row vector and the latter a column vector, however they are the same in the sense that they can both be regarded as lists of three real numbers, i.e. as $(x-z,y+hz,x+y+3z) in mathbb{R}^3.$ The accepted answer here sums this idea up pretty well.
