Functional Acrostics

Here's the new set of acrostics for you.

Blogging Prompt
Your task is to create an acrostic "poem" that demonstrates an understanding of functions related to any one of these concepts:

FUNCTION
RELATION
DOMAIN
RANGE
MAPPING
NOTATION

As an extra challenge (worth an additional bonus mark) try to make a Double Acrostic, that is, each line should begin and end with a letter of the word you are working with.

Remember, this is a bit of a race. Your answers have to be posted to the blog in the comments to this post. If someone has already used a word or phrase in their acrostic you cannot use the same word or phrase. i.e. It gets harder to do the longer you wait. ;-)

Here is an example of an acrostic that Mrs. Armstrong wrote:

Always in 2 dimensions
Region between the boundaries
Entire surface is calculated
Answer is in units2

Be creative and have fun with this!!

RANGE

R-
Range can include all the Real Numbers

A-
All on the y axis

N-
No x-coordinates are included with range number sets

G-
Great for indepth thinking of the graph

E-
Extend it may to an infinite number

Bah, this sounds okay.. but is it okay for you Mr. K?
