Maybe a mathematical example will make things clearer. Let's say we have the function:\\
|
||
|
|
$f(x, y) = y / x$
|
||
|
|
\vspace{\baselineskip}
|
||
|
|
\\
|
||
|
|
\pause
|
||
|
|
In order to evaluate the function for $x = 2$ and $y = 3$ we would do:\\
|
||
|
|
$f(2, 3) = 2 / 3$\\
|
||
|
|
and be done.
|
||
|
|
\vspace{\baselineskip}
|
||
|
|
\\
|
||
|
|
\pause
|
||
|
|
However, how about we just put in x first and make a new function. Since x is gone, we can write:\\
|
||
|
|
$g(y) = f(2, y) = y / 2$
|
||
|
|
\vspace{\baselineskip}
|
||
|
|
\\
|
||
|
|
\pause
|
||
|
|
And in a second step we solve the function $g(y)$:\\
|
||
|
|
$g(3) = f (2, 3) = 3 / 2$
