If a function f(x) is odd about a point, say (a,0), on thex-axis what exactly does this mean? How would you relate f(x valuesto left of a) to f(x values to right of a)?

Similarly, if a function f(x) is even about a point, say (a,0),on the x-axis what exactly does this mean? How would you relate f(xvalues to left of a) to f(x values to right of a)?

I understand what is meant by odd and even functions about theorigin, I just want to make sure I understand how a function can beodd or even about a point on the x axis. Can you also have odd andeven functions about points on the y-axis? How would you expressthese?
