Re: cdt glossary [Function] (was: Terminology question)



You spoke about measuring a function...How do you measure a function?
According to what scale?

Subjectivity and limited scope context does NOT redefine mathematical
concepts. It is actually the characteristics of mathematical empirical
sound reasonning to be objective and context independent. If you try
to define such concepts according to context then you are setting
limited scope reasonning which in most cases can be applied in one and
only one concept.

Reading the definition of random variable you provided, it seems clear
to me that random variables have pretty much nothing to do with
relations as they have been defined in the past 30 years. You would
spend better your time educating yourself on the subject by reading
some knowledgeable about the subject of relations instead of trying to
redefine concepts that are sound and that regulate the field of data
management more than ever . That way you would avoid getting bashed by
people like BB or one of his barking dogs... Here are a few pointers
that may help...
