Category TheoryFunctions started with an implicit definition - the dependency of some quantity on others. Functions were coined by Leibniz in 1673, were given the f(x) notation by Euler in 1734, were formalized in the language of set theory from around 1847 to 1939. Functions have since been further abstract, often capture and represent structure.
