Definition df-fv 4910
Description: Define the value of a function, (𝐹𝐴), also known as function application. For example, ( I ‘∅) = ∅. Typically, function 𝐹 is defined using maps-to notation (see df-mpt 3820), but this is not required. For example, F = { 2 , 6 , 3 , 9 } -> ( F 3 ) = 9 . We will later define two-argument functions using ordered pairs as (𝐴𝐹𝐵) = (𝐹‘⟨𝐴, 𝐵⟩). This particular definition is quite convenient: it can be applied to any class and evaluates to the empty set when it is not meaningful. The left apostrophe notation originated with Peano and was adopted in Definition *30.01 of [WhiteheadRussell] p. 235, Definition 10.11 of [Quine] p. 68, and Definition 6.11 of [TakeutiZaring] p. 26. It means the same thing as the more familiar 𝐹(𝐴) notation for a function's value at 𝐴, i.e. "𝐹 of 𝐴," but without context-dependent notational ambiguity. (Contributed by NM, 1-Aug-1994.)
