Vertical line test
Revision as of 18:30, 25 April 2008 by I like pie (talk | contribs)
The vertical line test is a way of determining whether or not a plotted graph is a function.
The vertical line test states that a relation is a function iff no vertical line intersects the graph in more than one point.
This is because a function cannot have more than one output for any one input.
For example, 
is a function because any vertical line intersects it in, at most, one point, while 
is not a function (try the line 
).
