Editing Graph of a function (section)

== Definition ==

Given a [[function (mathematics)|function]] <math>f : X \to Y</math> from a set {{mvar|X}} (the [[domain of a function|domain]]) to a set {{mvar|Y}} (the [[codomain]]), the graph of the function is the set<ref>{{cite book|author=D.

<math display=block>G(f) = \{(x,f(x)) : x \in X\},</math>
which is a subset of the [[Cartesian product]] <math>X\times Y</math>. In the definition of a function in terms of [[set theory]], it is common to identify a function with its graph, although, formally, a function is formed by the triple consisting of its domain, its codomain and its graph.
