Abstract
Here we analyze different ways to describe many-valued variables and functions. Using the mathematical tools developed in the theory of hyper-random phenomena, the notions of many-valued variable and many-valued function are formalized. A correspondence between many-valuedness and violation of convergence is established. We introduce the notions of spectrum and distribution function for many-valued variables and functions.
