Without looking up the exact definition, a function of variable x: y = f(x), will have only one value for each value of x. (So it would not cross over itself, or another way, given any value of x there will only be one corresponding y value). So a circle is not a function, because there are 2 possible y values for each x value in the range of the circle.
