Length: 33 minutesAuthor: Krystian KarczyńskiComplexity: Easy

In this lesson I introduce the concept of limits of functions (so far we dealt only with sequence limits). I show what is new and review the methods you already know – all of which can still be used for functions. <br><br> Note: Although the title says “simple”, the simplest function-limit problems can turn out to be the hardest – and I’ll show you how to <strong>defend</strong> yourself against that.<br><br> <h3>Table of Contents</h3> <ul> <li>explanation of what a function limit is [02:08]</li> <li>function limits – 6 basic examples [04:03]</li> <li>factoring out the highest powers in function limits – 3 examples [14:55]</li> <li>multiplying by the conjugate in function limits – 3 examples [20:33]</li> <li>limit resulting in the number e – example [27:45]</li> </ul>
