Composition of functions

Let f : A→ B and g : B → C be functions then gof : A → C defined by

(gof) (x) = g(f(x)).

Note that if gof is defined then fog may not be defined or equal

fog example if f : R → R and g : R → R.

Such that f(x) = cos x and g(x) = x3

Then go f(x) = cos3x and fog(x) = cos x3.
