In calculus, a continuous function is a real-valued function whose graph does not have any breaks or holes. More precisely, a function ( f(x) ) is considered continuous at a point ( x = a ) if the following conditions hold:
These requirements ensure that a small change in the input leads to a small change in the output, implying there are no abrupt changes in value (discontinuities) within the function's domain.
For more details, you can refer to the Wikipedia article on Continuous Functions.
