The "Limit of a Function" part is barely intelligible , IMO
Line 1: Line 1:  +
The concept of the limit is a cornerstone of the mathematical branch of [[analysis]].

==Limit of a Sequence==
 +
Let <math>(a_n)_{n\in N} = (a_1, a_2, a_3, ...)</math> be a [[sequence]] of real numbers. We say that this sequence has a limit <math>a</math>, i.e.,
 +
<math>
 +
\lim_{n\to \infty} = a,
 +
</math>
 +
if for any <math>\epsilon > 0</math>, there exists a number  <math>N</math>, such that
 +
<math>
 +
|a_n - a| < \epsilon</math> for every <math>n > N</math>.

==Limit of a Function==
 
Let <math>f(x)</math> be a real valued [[function]] in one [[variable]]. We say that
