(1) The domain of definition and rule are the two important factors to determine the function. The former describes the region of existence of the function, and the latter gives the method for determining the corresponding elements of the set Y from the elements of the set X.
A function is completely determined by these two factors and is independent of the forms of the expression and the kind of elements contained in the set.
(2) When the function is given by a formula, the domain is usually understood to consist of all the numbers for which the formula is defined.

22 、 、 Ways of representing a function Ways of representing a function 22 、 、 Ways of representing a function Ways of representing a function
To express a function is mainly to express its corresponding rule. There are many methods to express the corresponding rule, the following three are often used.
(1) Analytic representation(1) Analytic representation
Many functions are given by an analytic representation. For example, the functions are given in example 1 and 2.
(2) Method of tabulation(2) Method of tabulation
Sometimes, a function is given by a table that lists the independent variable and its corresponding dependent variable. For example
x 20 30 40 50 60 70y 20 41 72 118 182 266
(3) Method shown by graph(3) Method shown by graph
The relation between y and x is shown by a graph. For example, the temperature curve recorded by some instruments expresses the relation between the temperature and time.

It should be noted that the analytic representation of a function sometimes consists of several components on different subsets of the domain of definition of the function. A function expressed by this kind of representations is called a piecewise defined function.
