TermThis exampleWhy
graph of function ✓ $\setdef{(x, x^2) \suchthat x \in \reals}$ is the graph of the function $x \mapsto x^2$, because it is the set of its input-output pairs.
curve ✓ $\setdef{(x, x^2) \suchthat x \in \reals}$ is a curve, the parabola, because it is a one-dimensional set in the plane.
graph network ✗
graph chart ✗ $\setdef{(x, x^2) \suchthat x \in \reals}$ is the graph of the function $x \mapsto x^2$. It is not a chart, because it is a set of points, not a picture, and it is not a network, because it has no vertices or edges.
