Definition:Continuous Real Function/Everywhere

Definition

Let $f: \R \to \R$ be a real function.

Then $f$ is everywhere continuous if and only if $f$ is continuous at every point in $\R$.

Also known as

Some sources take the everywhere nature of such a real function as understood, and merely refer to it as a continuous (real) function.
