Yeah.. I’m pretty sure the official definition of a limit says nothing like that.
Any definition of a limit that I’ve ever seen (official or not) has been careful to note that you cannot set c to 0, but only approach it (whether in mathematical terms or English).
- Patient0 8y agoYes, that's my point. The article is giving an incorrect definition of what a limit is. The target audience does not know what a limit is or how it is defined. The use of imprecise and incorrect language will confuse these people more than it will help.
