I am studying functions and their properties. I understand that a function can be injective, but I am not sure if injective means one-to-one. Can someone clarify if an injective function is necessarily one-to-one?
An injective function, also known as a one-to-one function, holds a unique property in mathematics.

This function is characterized by its ability to map every distinct element in its domain to a distinct element in its codomain.

In simpler terms, if two inputs to the function yield the same output, then those inputs must be identical.

Formally, this property is expressed as: if f(x) = f(y), then it necessarily implies that x = y.
