In mathematics, a unary function is a function that takes one argument. A unary operation is a special kind of unary function, whose codomain coincides with its domain.
Examples

Many of the elementary functions are unary functions, including the trigonometric functions, logarithm with a specified base, exponentiation to a particular power or base, and hyperbolic functions.
