Let be a finite-dimensional linear associative algebra over the real field R or the complex field C and let F be a function with domain and range in .

Several classes of functions on have been discussed in the literature, and it is the purpose of this paper to discuss the relationships between these classes and to present some interesting examples. First we shall list the definitions of the classes we wish to consider here.
