Understanding Functions in Discrete Mathematics

Welcome to the fascinating world of functions in discrete mathematics! Functions are essential building blocks in the study of mathematics and computer science. Let's dive into some concepts and exciting details.

What is a Function?

A function is a relation between a set of inputs and a set of permissible outputs. Each input is related to exactly one output. Functions can be represented using different methods such as equations, graphs, or tables.

Types of Functions

• Injective (One-to-One): Each element of the range is mapped by exactly one element of the domain.
• Surjective (Onto): Every element of the range is mapped by at least one element of the domain.
• Bijective: A function that is both injective and surjective.
