Aggregate FunctionsMINreturns the smallest value in a given columnMAXreturns the largest value in a given columnSUMreturns the sum of the numeric values in a given columnAVGreturns the average value of a given columnCOUNTreturns the total number of values in a given columnCOUNT(*)returns the number of rows in a table
Aggregate functions are used to compute against a "returned column of numeric data" from your SELECT statement. They basically summarize the results of a particular column of selected data. We are covering these here since they are required by the next topic, "GROUP BY". Although they are required for the "GROUP BY" clause, these functions can be used without the "GROUP BY" clause. For example:
SELECT AVG(salary)
FROM employee;
This statement will return a single result which contains the average value of everything returned in the salary column from the employee table.
Another example:
SELECT AVG(salary)
FROM employee;
WHERE title = 'Programmer';
This statement will return the average salary for all employees whose title is equal to 'Programmer'
Example:
SELECT Count(*)
FROM employees;
This particular statement is slightly different from the other aggregate functions since there isn't a column supplied to the count function. This statement will return the number of rows in the employees table

Wherever a function is differentiable, it must also be continuous. The opposite is not true, however. For example, the absolute value function, f(x) =|x|, is not differentiable at x=0 even though it is continuous everywhere.
Same as any other function - but in the case of a definite integral, you can take advantage of the periodicity. For example, assuming that a certain function has a period of pi, and the value of the definite integral from zero to pi is 2, then the integral from zero to 2 x pi is 4.
There are continuous functions, for example f(t) = e^{t^2}, for which the integral defining the Laplace transform does not converge for any value of the Laplace variable s. So you could say that this continuous function does not have a Laplace transform.
A function must have a value for any given domain. For each edge (or interval), the sign graph has a sign (+ or -) . So, it is a function.
I regret that I can see no function shown.
