👉 In mathematics, a gradient is a vector that describes the rate of change of a function with respect to an independent variable. It can be visualized as a slope on a graph. For example, consider a function f(x) = x^2. The gradient at any point (x, y) in this function would be: f'(x) = dy/dx Where dy is the change in y with respect to x and dx is the change in x with respect to y. This
