Consider a function of a single
variable . Consider a constant which
the variable will approach may or may
not be in the domain of ). The limit, to
be denoted by , is the unique real value
that will approach as approaches . In
symbols, we write this process as

shown no matter what set of values, or
what direction, is taken in approaching .

Remark 1: We do not say that “equals DNE”,

nor do we write , because “DNE” is not a value.

In the previous example, “DNE” indicated that

the function moves in different directions as

its variable approaches from the left and from

the right.

Remark 2:
• If approaches from the left, or through
values less than , then we write
• If approaches from the right, or through
values greater than , then we write
Furthermore, we say

iff

In other words, for a limit to exist, the limits
from the left and from the right must both
exist and be equal to . Therefore,
whenever .

These limits and , are also referred to as

one-sided limits, since you only consider
values on one side of .
