1. {(3,4),(5,9),(9,9),(2,3)}::: is a function
-----
2. {(0,0),(0,1),(1,4),(2,4)}::: is not because x=0 is matched with 2 y-values
-----
3. {(2,1),(4,5),(8,4),(1,0)}::: is a function
--------
4. {(8,3),(8,0),(7,7),(4,7)}::: is not because x=8 is matched with 2 y-values
---
Criteria: each value of x has just one corresponding value of y
