Introduction of Limits

Now that we have defined the limit, let’s try to better understand the limit by giving an example…

In this article, we start limits! Well, what’s the limit?

In mathematics, a limit is the value that a function (or sequence) “approaches” as the input (or index) “approaches” some value. Limits are essential to calculus (and mathematical analysis in general) and are used to define continuity, derivatives, and integrals.

Now that we have defined the limit, let’s try to better understand the limit by giving an example. For example, we have this function:

We draw a graphic with this function. Let’s start by giving x a value of 1.

If x equal to 1, f(x) is 1.

f(1) = (1²-3*1)/(1–3)
