Abstract

This chapter introduces the student to relations and graphs. We emphasize the similarities and differences between functions and relations and examine various representations of a relation by a map, and a Boolean matrix, as well as graphically by an arrow diagram, graph, digraph, or Hasse diagram when possible. One of our goals is to help the student to be able to go back and forth between the various representations.
