The Dirac delta function, often denoted as \\(\\delta(x)\\), is a mathematical construct used primarily in physics and engineering to represent a point source or an idealized distribution of mass, charge, or other quantities. Despite being called a "function," the Dirac delta is not a function in the traditional sense but rather a distribution or a "generalized function.
