The author argues that -- unlike the notion of real number -- there has not been produced one logically stringent and generally acknowledged notion of a ``real function'' in the 19th century. In order to show this he quotes extensively from Euler, Dirichlet, Hankel, Du Bois-Reymond, Weierstrass, Fourier, Riemann, Baire, Bolzano, Frege and other mathematicians. The author sticks to the purely conceptual side and does not go into the historical needs for considering ``real functions'' and real numbers as values, which arose e.g. in differential equations or in integration theory. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0940.00069].
