Extract

The problem I am going to discuss is the generation of the class of all mappings of the space S×S×.. × S, with any number of factors, into S itself, from a single mapping of the class, where S is a finite set. The problem has its origin in the study of truth tables and it is in this setting that the problem may be most simply presented.
