Equality of Mappings

Theorem
Two mappings $$f_1: S_1 \to T_1, f_2: S_2 \to T_2$$ are equal iff:


 * $$S_1 = S_2$$
 * $$T_1 = T_2$$
 * $$\forall x \in S_1: f_1 \left({x}\right) = f_2 \left({x}\right)$$.

Proof
This follows directly from Equality of Relations.

Comment
It is worth labouring the point that for two mappings to be equal, not only must their domains be equal, but so must their codomains.

However, note that some sources, for example, do not impose this condition, stating merely that two mappings are equal if the domains are equal and every element has the same image under each mapping.
