A funtion f whose domain and range are real is Lipschitz continuous if there exists a constant M such that for all x and y, |f(x) - f(y)| <= M * |x - y|.

The geometric interpretation is that if you put a cone (of constant angle) around each point of the graph of the function, the function stays inside that cone.
