IPOD VIDEO: A function is a rule which operates on one number to give another number. However, not every rule describes a valid function. This unit explains how to see whether a given rule describes a valid function, and introduces some of the mathematical terms associated with functions.

We can build up complicated functions from simple functions by using the
process of composition, where the output of one function becomes the input of
another. It is also sometimes necessary to carry out the reverse process,
decomposing a complicated function into two or more simple functions.
This unit explains how.

Exponential functions and logarithm functions are important in both theory and
practice. In this unit we look at the graphs of exponential and logarithm
functions, and see how they are related.

The hyperbolic functions have similar names to the trigonmetric functions,
but they are defined in terms of the exponential function. In this unit we
define the three main hyperbolic functions, and sketch their graphs. We also
discuss some identities relating these functions, and mention their inverse
functions and reciprocal functions.

A function is a rule which operates on one number to give another number.
However, not every rule describes a valid function. This unit explains
how to see whether a given rule describes a valid function, and introduces
some of the mathematical terms associated with functions.

An inverse function is a second function which undoes the work of the first
one. In this unit we describe two methods for finding inverse functions, and we
also explain that the domain of a function may need to be restricted before an
inverse function can exist.

In this unit, we explain what it means for a function to tend to infinity,
to minus infinity, or to a real limit, as x tends to infinity or to minus
infinity. We also explain what it means for a function to tend to a real limit
as x tends to a given real number. In each case, we give an example of a
function that does not tend to a limit at all.

Some of the most important functions are linear. This unit describes how to
recognize a linear function, and how to find the slope and the y-intercept
of its graph.

Many common functions are polynomial functions. In this unit we describe
polynomial functions and look at some of their properties.

The sine, cosine and tangent of an angle are all defined in terms of
trigonometry, but they can also be expressed as functions. In this unit we
examine these functions and their graphs. We also see how to restrict the
domain of each function in order to define an inverse function.
