Abstract

This chapter reviews the real-valued functions on space, with fully solved examples that show the application and usefulness of their components to deal with practical problems. Then, we see the types of functions that the reader will often find in academic and research activities. Later, another family of functions called Vector-Valued Functions is defined and its usefulness in solving application problems is shown with examples. Finally, both types of functions are generalized for higher-dimension spaces.
