We present a transformer that takes a first order probabilistic program and returns a density function corresponding to this program. Alongside this we also present a type system that identifies the distributions these programs represent as absolutely continuous. These absolutely continuous distributions are precisely those that admit density functions. This work includes analysis on programs with both scoring con- structs and unbounded loops.
