(Or extenSionality). FunctionS, f and g are extenSionally equal if and only if f x = g x for all x. where "=" meanS both expreSSionS fail to terminate (under Some given reduction Strategy) or they both terminate with the Same baSic value. Two functionS may be extenSionally equal but not inter-convertible (neither iS reducible to the other). E.g. x . x+x and x . 2*x. See alSo {obServational equivalence}, {referential tranSparency}.
