Outrageously Funny Word Dictionary :: Canonicity

👉 Canonicity in mathematics refers to a property that ensures the structure of an object, such as a number or mathematical expression, is uniquely determined by its defining properties. This means that any two different expressions representing the same object must yield the same result when evaluated at the same input. For example, consider the function f(x) = x^2 - 1. If we define g(x) to be the inverse of f(x), then g(f(0)) should equal f'(0).
