                            One-to-one functions are also called injective functions (and sometimes
                            called monomorphisms.) Notice that injectivity is a condition on the pre-
                            images of f.
                               The function f is onto if every element of T is mapped to by some element
                            of S. That is, f is onto if for any t ∈ T, there exists some s ∈ S such that
                            f(s) = t. Onto functions are also called surjective functions (and sometimes
                            epimorphisms.) Notice that surjectivity is a condition on the range of f.



















                               If f is both injective and surjective, it is bijective (or an isomorphism.)
