WHAT DOES SURJECTIVE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Surjective function

In mathematics, a function f from a set X to a set Y is surjective, or a surjection, if every element y in Y has a corresponding element x in X such that f = y. The function f may map more than one element of X to the same element of Y. The term surjective and the related terms injective and bijective were introduced by Nicolas Bourbaki, the pseudonym for a group of mainly French 20th-century mathematicians who wrote a series of books presenting an exposition of modern advanced mathematics, beginning in 1935. The French prefix sur means over or above and relates to the fact that the image of the domain of a surjective function completely covers the function's codomain.

Definition of surjective in the English dictionary

The definition of surjective in the dictionary is having every element of the image space as a value for some members of the domain.
