Talk:Surjective function

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

For consistency with injective function perhaps this page should be renamed surjective function and a redirect sent there from here.

Sounds good -- who wants to do it?

You forgot to move the talk page (I did it). -lethe talk + 13:51, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Reversible and Inverse

if a surjective function is revrsible, how does the first picture there represent a reversible function. The C appears to be mapped to by two elements of the domain; wouldn't that make it no surjective? anton

It's not very clear in the article. "Reversible" simply means that if g(C) = 4, f(4) = C. It doesn't matter that g(C) can also equal 3. I'm going to try to put that into the article. --KSnortum (talk) 20:52, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Rendering

This page isn't rendering correctly for me in Firefox 2.0.0.9 and IE 7.0.5730ish. Unfortunately, the preview while editing looks fine and I don't know what's causing the problem, so I may have to post a number of edits to get it right, or better. --KSnortum (talk) 18:32, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

Got a brilliant idea and decided to do this work in a subpage instead of the live article. I'll copy it over if and when I get it working. I'll try to keep track of changes here but if I make a regression error please forgive me (and correct it). --KSnortum (talk) 18:53, 25 November 2007 (UTC)
I put the images in a table; that helps render them in Firefox and IE. I think it looks okay but feel free to improve it. --KSnortum (talk) 19:59, 25 November 2007 (UTC)
