Can some one tell me what this notation means 𝑀: N^|𝑋| → 𝑅

M stands for a mechanism and N is for all possible natural numbers. I cannot figure out is X the size of the data set or not ?

First: $|X|$ is probably the number of elements of $X$, so let's assume that's true and set $k = |X|$. Then $N^{|X|}$ is the set of $k$-tuples of natural numbers



If $M:Bbb{N}^{|X|}rightarrow Bbb{R}$, then $M$ is a function that maps a $k$-tuple of natural numbers into the set of real numbers.
