Absolute continuity is a concept from real analysis that extends the idea of continuity and provides a stronger form of integration. A function \\( f \\) defined on an interval \\(\[a, b\]\\) is said to be absolutely continuous if it satisfies the following criteria: 1. **Existence of a Derivative**: For almost every point \\( x \\in \[a, b\] \\), the function \\( f \\) has a derivative \\( f'(x) \\).
