A metacyclic group is a specific type of group in group theory, which is a branch of mathematics. More precisely, it is a particular kind of solvable group that has a structure related to cyclic groups. A group \\( G \\) is called metacyclic if it has a normal subgroup \\( N \\) that is cyclic, and the quotient group \\( G/N \\) is also cyclic.
