You need two properties.



1) For each $xin A$ there is a $yin B$ such that $(x,y)in R$



2) If $(x_1,y_1)in R$ and $(x_2,y_2)in R$, then $$x_1 = x_2 implies y_1=y_2$$

  • $begingroup$
    I think the second point is a bit unclear. Perhaps rewrite it as "If $(x,y_1), (x,y_2) isin R$ then $y_1=y_2$"?
