The use of the word "onto" is made in sentences, but is using the term "onto" right i.e. is it proper to use "onto" as one word or is it proper to use it as "on to". 10:30, 10 September 2011 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aniketnik (talk • contribs) As with most things in language usage it depends.
In mathematics, a surjective function (also known as surjection, or onto function / ˈ ɒ n. t uː /) is a function f such that, for every element y of the function's codomain, there exists at least one element x in the function's domain such that f(x) = y. In other words, for a function f : X → Y, the codomain Y is the image of the function ...
One way to do this is to say that two sets "have the same number of elements", if and only if all the elements of one set can be paired with the elements of the other, in such a way that each element is paired with exactly one element. Accordingly, one can define two sets to "have the same number of elements"—if there is a bijection between them.
The term one-to-one correspondence must not be confused with one-to-one function, which means injective but not necessarily surjective. The elementary operation of counting establishes a bijection from some finite set to the first natural numbers (1, 2, 3, ...) , up to the number of elements in the counted set.

Compound prepositions of this kind include into, onto, throughout, upon, within, and without. Compound prepositions have also been formed from prepositions and nouns.
