The Tent map is a mathematical function that is often used in the study of chaotic systems in dynamical systems theory. It is a simple yet powerful example of how complicated behavior can arise from a deterministic system. The Tent map is typically defined over the interval \([0, 1]\) and is given by the following piecewise function: \[ T(x) = \begin{cases} 2x & \text{if } 0 \leq x < 0.
