Monotone Function

Last updated Nov 1, 2022

# Definition 1

An Order-Preserving Function

# Definition 2

A Function that is either Non-Decreasing Function or Non-Increasing Function

# Remark

This term is Overloaded. Definition 2 usually applies when we are dealing with Total Orderings, usually $\mathbb{R}$ or $\mathbb{Z}$. To avoid confusion I’ll opt for Order-Preserving Function instead of definition 1.
