Understanding Functions without Using the Vertical Line Test
Fernandez, Eileen
Mathematics Teacher, v99 n2 p96-100 Sep 2005
Study was conducted on how the students were made to think meaningfully and widely within and across the representations in solving and identifying functions in precalculus, without the usage of the vertical line test. It was concluded that the "no vertical line testing" method proved to be easily accessible by all students and also made them think and reason in other fields also.
