In [[mathematics]], the '''graph of a function''' <math>f</math> is a [[Mathematical diagram|diagram]] representing the set of [[ordered pair]]s <math>(x, y)</math>, where <math>f(x) = y.</math> In the common case where <math>x</math> and <math>f(x)</math> are [[real number]]s, these pairs are [[Cartesian coordinates]] of points in a [[plane (geometry)|plane]] and often form a [[Plane curve|curve]].
The graphical representation of the graph of a [[Function (mathematics)|function]] is also known as a ''[[Plot (graphics)|plot]]''.
