A relation is defined as a set of tuples. Mathematically, elements of a set have no order among them; hence, tuples in a relation do not have any particular order. In other words, a relation is not sensitive to the ordering of tuples. Tuple ordering is not part of a relation definition because a relation attempts to represent facts at a logical or abstract level. Many logical orders can be specified on a relation but there is no preference for one logical ordering over another.

A relation is a set of ordered pairs.A function is a relation such that for each element there is one and only one second element.Example:{(1, 2), (4, 3), (6, 1), (5, 2)}This is a function because every ordered pair has a different first element.Example:{(1, 2), (5, 6), (7, 2), (1, 3)}This is a relation but not a function because when the first element is 1, the second element can be either 2 or 3.
