Talk:Identity equation

Target[edit]

Can Hyacinth explain why should it be redirected to identity function instead of identity (mathematics)? Incnis Mrsi (talk) 08:14, 25 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Incnis Mrsi: Feel free to change the redirect. I created it nine years ago and my best guess is that I was editing in regards to set theory and made my choice based on "equation" and "function" often being used as synonyms, even if this may be technically incorrect. Out of curiosity, would you please explain why, if so, identity equation should be redirected to "identity (mathematics)" instead of "identity function"?
