	Identity function - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		An identity function f is a function which does not have any effect: it always returns the same value that was used as its argument.
		is the identity element of the monoid of all functions from M to M.
		The identity function on the positive integers is a completely multiplicative function (essentially multiplication by 1), considered in number theory.

	Bijection, injection and surjection - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In mathematics, injections, surjections and bijections are classes of functions distinguished by the manner in which arguments (input expressions from the domain) and images (output expressions from the codomain) are related or mapped to each other.
		A function is surjective (onto) if every element of the codomain is mapped to by some element (argument) of the domain; some images may be mapped to by more than one argument.
		A bijective function is a bijection (one-to-one correspondence).

		Composition is the operation of taking the output from one function and using that as the input to a second function.

		Identities are necessary in our database environment and we cannot distinguish one record from another unless there is uniqueness of each record, that we can identify and record.
		As to be expected the functions features in SQL Server 2000 improve on those in the prior version — and it is worthwhile spending a moment or two reviewing what is now available for management of identities.
		If you need artificial identities - and current practice is to build tables with artificial identities even if a natural identity is available - use the IDENTITY property, and manage and control the results with the wider range of functions.

		When you use a SELECT INTO query with the IDENTITY function and an ORDER BY clause, the identity values that are generated are not guaranteed to have the same order as the order that is provided by the ORDER BY clause.
		The identity values that are generated depend on the position of the GetIdentity() function in the query tree (showplan), which may change due to optimizer changes, parallel query plans or the presence of TOP/SET ROWCOUNT.
		However, the identity value generation occurs before the rows are sorted based on the ORDER BY clause.
