TL;DRAbstract

The Curriculum and Evaluation of Standards for School Mathematics (NCTM 1989) targeted the concept of function as one that should receive increased attention. A function can be defined as a rule that assigns to every input value exactly one output value. To make it easier for novices to recognize a function, we should select the rule, the input, and the output to be straightforward.
