Definition 141

[1Y6] Given two sets \(A,B\), a function \(f:A→ B\) is a triple

\[ A,B,F \]

(where \(A\) is said domain and \(B\) codomain) and \(F\) is a relation \(FβŠ† AΓ— B\) such that

\[ βˆ€ x∈ A βˆƒ!y∈ B , xFy\quad ; \]

i.e. it enjoys the properties of being functional and total (defined in [23X]).

Being the element \(y\) unique, we can write \(y=f(x)\) to say that \(y\) is the only element in relation \(xFy\) with \(x\).

The set \(F\) is also called graph of the function.
