Abstract
Functions crop up regularly in everyday life (for instance: each student of the Polytechnic of Turin has a unique identification number), in physics (to each point of a region in space occupied by a fluid we may associate the velocity of the particle passing through that point at a given moment), in economy (each working day at Milan's stock exchange is tagged with the Mibtel index), and so on.
