The problem is:
For two discrete random variables $X$, $Y sim p(x,y)$, can we find another random variable $Z$ independent of $X$, such that there exists a function $f$ satisfying $Y = f(X,Z)$?
I've got the hint that a constructive proof is needed, but I still have no idea about how to do the proof.
