Extract

We introduce and compare four procedures for defining the order-continuity of a function from one topological ordered space into another, where each reduces to the usual conception when the orderings of the two spaces are trivial. Chiefly for the purposes of this comparison, we use the idea of an ‘order-connected’ space, and in the course of investigating under which types of order-continuous functions this property is preserved, we are helped in assessing their relative importance.
