Definitions

  1. The target set into which a function is formally defined to map elements of its domain

    The target set into which a function is formally defined to map elements of its domain; the set denoted Y in the notation f : X → Y.

    • Definition 2.5. A function is onto if each element of the codomain has at least one element of the domain assigned to it. In other words, a function is onto if the range equals the codomain.
    • For example, the codomain of g(X)#61;X³ consists of all real numbers. A function links each element in its domain to some element in its codomain. Each domain element is linked to exactly one codomain element.
