REmember that

A continuous function allows the x-values to be ANY points in the interval, including fractions, decimals, and irrational values

A discrete function allows the x-values to be only certain points in the interval, usually only integers or whole numbers.

Discrete functions have scatter plots as graphs and continuous functions have lines or curves as graphs
