One-to-One Function

A function is one-to-one if each value in the range corresponds to exactly one element in the domain. Equivalently, for each ordered pair in the function, every yy-value is paired with only one xx-value, meaning there are no repeated yy-values among different ordered pairs. While a standard function requires that each xx-value maps to only one yy-value, a one-to-one function adds the additional requirement that each yy-value maps back to only one xx-value.
