Sufficient conditons are given for the chaotic behaviour of difference equations defined in terms of continuous mappings in Rn. These conditions are applicable to both difference equations with snap-back repellors and with saddle points. They are applied here to the twisted-horseshoe difference equation of Guckenheimer, Oster and Ipaktchi.
