Pairing function Pairing function In mathematics, a pairing function is a process to uniquely encode two natural numbers into a single natural number. Any pairing function can be used in set theory to prove that integers and rational numbers have the same cardinality as natural numbers.

A pairing function is a computable bijection The Cantor pairing function is a primitive recursive pairing function defined by The statement that this is the only quadratic pairing function is known as
