In a physics lecture, the audience is reasonably smart but slow - so you can use compact natural language flavored instructions: e.g. "as we take the limit of x to zero, expression(x) goes to c" which change values of variables. I

I randomly open Feynmans lectures on physics and see E (between the sheets) = sigma/epsilon0 E (outside) = 0 assigning two different values to the variable E. In applied math, there are many expressions in which a variable y is treated
