Function Decomposition and Composition Concepts

The video tutorial covers the composition and decomposition of functions. It begins with an introduction to the composition of functions, explaining how to combine two functions into one. The tutorial then delves into the notation used for composition and provides examples of finding F of G of X and G of F of X. The latter part of the video introduces decomposition, where a single function is broken down into two functions, and provides examples to illustrate the concept.
