A Hechler condition is a pair (s,f) consisting of a finite sequence s∈ω<ω and a function f∈ωω. An extension lengthens the stem, increases the side function, and places every new stem value above the old side function. The generic union is a dominating real.

Hechler forcing
A function d∈ωω dominates h∈ωω when d(n)>h(n) for all but finitely many n. A dominating real over a ground model dominates every such function belonging to that model.
