Talk:Limit (mathematics)

who writes this stuff??--Lemonpeel 21:41, 3 July 2008 (EDT)

The math articles were written by random editors of conservapedia, I actually liked the earlier version of the article as it was easier to understand that the current version --  Deborah (contributions) (talk) 22:05, 3 July 2008 (EDT)

Deborah while the previous article was easier to read, it was easier to read because it was wrong. DanielB 00:04, 4 July 2008 (EDT)

Funtion vs. Sequence

Function should be first. It is more fundamental, even if it might be considered harder. I'd like to object. The idea of the limit of a sequence is the more basic one - and it's taught first, I suppose. Generally, you introduce the limit of a function in a point via the limit of sequences: What does it mean (in your example) that ? It means, you look at all sequences with . And if for all these sequences, the corresponding sequence converges to the same value , you'd say that the function has limit in x. But without this underlying concept, the expression is unmotivated and baseless. --DiEb 18:11, 17 August 2008 (EDT)
