INTRODUCTION Provided here is a brief introduction to the concept of "limit," which features prominently in calculus. We first discuss the limit of a function at a point; to help motivate the definition, we first consider continuous functions. Unless otherwise mentioned, all functions here will have domain and range $ \mathbb{R} $, the real numbers.

Continuous functions

Let's look at the the following three functions

$ \displaystyle f(x)=x^3 $

$ g(x)=\begin{cases}-1 &\text{if}~x<0\\ 1 &\text{if}~x\geq 0\end{cases} $

TOPIC 3

Lorem Ipsum [1] is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
