In [[mathematics]], particularly in [[mathematical analysis]] and [[measure theory]], an '''approximately continuous function''' is a concept that generalizes the notion of [[continuous function]]s by replacing the [[limit of a function|ordinary limit]] with an [[approximate limit]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://encyclopediaofmath.org/wiki/Approximate_continuity|title=Approximate continuity|website=Encyclopedia of Mathematics|access-date=January 7, 2025}}</ref> This generalization provides insights into [[measurable function]]s with applications in real analysis and geometric measure theory.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Evans |first1=L.C. |last2=Gariepy |first2=R.F. |title=Measure theory and fine properties of functions |publisher=CRC Press |series=Studies in Advanced Mathematics |___location=Boca Raton, FL |year=1992 |isbn= |pages=}}</ref>

* [[Density point]]

* [[Density topology]] (which serves to describe approximately continuous functions in a different way, as continuous functions for a different topology)
