In addition to being constructed from primitives by functionals, a function may be defined recursively by an equation, the simplest kind being:
f ≡ Efwhere E'f is an expression built from primitives, other defined functions, and the function symbol f itself, using functionals.

Famous quotes containing the word functions:
“In today’s world parents find themselves at the mercy of a society which imposes pressures and priorities that allow neither time nor place for meaningful activities and relations between children and adults, which downgrade the role of parents and the functions of parenthood, and which prevent the parent from doing things he wants to do as a guide, friend, and companion to his children.”
—Urie Bronfenbrenner (b. 1917)
