Mathematics · Set Theory & Combinatorics
Consider the following statements regarding functions between finite sets and the Pigeonhole Principle: Statement 1: The Pigeonhole Principle proves that if a finite domain is strictly larger than a codomain, the function cannot be injective. Statement 2: For functions mapping between finite sets, surjectivity requires that the size of the domain must be strictly less than the size of the codomain.
