see that mr. Donald has only made conjectures about the nature of the problem, not about the solution. You all were just wasting my time, because it's clear that you all have no idea about how to solve this problem. You were pointing obviousnesses such as "discussing continuity includes the possibility that there is discontinuity." or and trying to figure out what I was asking like here "When x+y = 0, the value of (x+y)/(x+y) is undefined. Therefore it is not a limit, and it is unclear what it means to ask for its limit (if that is the question of he first part)." (then sin(x)/x when x-: -->

blue curve is the purple curve translated by (-5/3,-50/27), and that the blue curve is the purple curve rotated 180 degrees about the point (1/2,-2). Similar points apply to B, and it's possible he was trying to show something in connection with that. I agree that C appears to be pointing out both the growth and the decline of a cubic on scaling, and would like to add that D appears to show that a curve that starts out below can end up above, for the same reason. I agree with CM about E, and with Capuchin regarding his artistic skill.

times I can find that you have stated, suggested or intimated before that you are interested in taking the limit along the straight line y=-x is exactly 0 (zero, zilch, niente, nada), which is a bit less than one thousand. But here goes. On that straight line (at least according to what you wrote, namely "I have a function which is ... 0 when x+y=0"), the function value is

Since the original asker has abandoned the question, I'll go ahead and ask my related question, only for the sake of my curiosity. What do you call the concept of finding the limit points of a multidimensional function as the function of points on a curve or a set of curves defined parametrically on

I guess calling people lazy, stupid and wasting MY time with your incompetence goes against WP:CIVIL and that assume good faith thing, I guess. It's not a homework question, you Einstein, since I rarely have homework on holidays. If you could read, because at this point I'm really doubting so, you'll

It's hard to say for sure what he was going for, but he does seem in general to be displaying characteristics of various cubics. In A, the two curves are very symmetric to each other.

at the origin. You did not state what the points of interest are, but it is so obvious that the function is not continuous at, for example, (1,–1), that the idea did not cross my mind that this might be an issue. For the origin, I have supplied a solution. Maybe I have miscounted, but the number of

I have two questions. One's on the talk page of that article, if anyone wants to have a shot at it. The other is, where online can I find out more about them? I searched Google of course, but almost every single site that mentioned them had a verbatim copy of our current article instead of original
1283:
Well, okay, a multidimensional limit normally has to cover approach from all directions. However, you could take the limit along a particular plane, like x=0 or y=0 or x=y or something like that; it seems this would be a compact way to describe it. "Limit as (x,y) approaches (0,0) for f(x,y) where

Lets take 1,-1 then. evaluating points like g(1.001,-0.999)=1000.001 and g(0.999,-1.001)=-1000.001 gives evidence that all along y=-x, (except x=y=0) the function is divergent or asymptotic (if either term makes sense for functions on planes), which means that setting g(x,y) = 0 for y=-x does not

Lambian, I was just speculating about the problem that was offered (although my surmise was correct about the missing part, at least), I didn't actually do any of the math to see what happens with that condition. Taraborn, discussing continuity includes the possibility that there is discontinuity.
734:
A principal feature in the multidimensional case is the additional freedom in how we approach a point. In the one-dimensional case, we can only approach from above or below, though these can already give different answers. In your plane example, we can approach along many different paths. What we

When x+y = 0, the value of (x+y)/(x+y) is undefined. Therefore it is not a limit, and it is unclear what it means to ask for its limit (if that is the question of he first part). The second part is more clear, but should properly be stated as follows: "What is the limit of (x+y)/(x+y) as (x,y) →
905:
Taraborn, mathematicians like it when the statements and notation are nice and tidy. You have used notation which, to my knowledge, is highly nonstandard (if at all sensible), which is the source of much conufsion. What I understand is that you ask not what happens when you move along the line
816:
It did not help that you managed to completely mangle up the question as you initially posed it. If you study my reply above to Donald Hosek, you'll find it contains the answer. But the issue is: DO YOUR OWN HOMEWORK. If you are too lazy for that, do not waste our time by posting your homework
375:. If the limit of f(x,y) as (x,y) → (0,0) exists, the value of f(x,y) should be everywhere defined in a neighbourhood of (0,0) with the possible exception of the point (0,0) itself. However, arbitrarily close to (0,0) there are points (x,y) such that x+y = 0, so there is a little problem .  -- 1228:
Okay, this means I got the problem right. My apologies to everyone that might have been offended by my tone, especially Lambiam. Sorry for not making the problem clear enough, I thought it definitely was but, as Meni Rosenfeld pointed out, I'm not a mathematician and I can't speak "in your

operation where you take the derivatives with respect to x and y separately in order to find the components of a vector representing that function's change (though again, if the function isn't actually continuous from all directions, the gradient doesn't really exist). -
1179: 710:... was that an insult? I'm not an idiot, and I'm quite aware of that. By saying "calculating a limit" I considered either giving its value or proving its nonexistence. I don't think the problem is that hard to understand, seriously. I tried doing the limit when x-: --> 892:. Usually, constant functions are rather continuous, and this one is no exception. For a continuous function, to find a limit, you can just take the function value. In this case, it is 0. I have used some algebra, in particular the fact that y = –x implies x+y = 0.  -- 2219: 1968:
is a constant. So if every term of the sum works out to the same thing, you could collect all the terms together to remove the sigma. More generally, perhaps the sum can be simplified to remove the explicit sum (even if the terms are not all constant).
1262:? Does this concept have a name? I know once you've defined the curve parametrically, it essentially becomes the problem of finding the limit of a function of a single variable.... but it still seems interesting and noteworthy enough to have its own 1715:
I guess the 2n means that the fact it's even is significant, but I can't really see how. The factorials in the answer given seem to suggest the binomial coefficients come in to play there, but, again, I can't quite see how I can get an expression for

x=y"? Now, I don't really see the mathematical significance of a limit that is the same from both axis-aligned planes (i.e. x=0 and y=0), so I can't say that I think there's a particular name for it. It does, however, remind me of the

Errrrr... Well, I have a function which is defined this way: (x^2+y^2)/(x+y) when x+y!=0 and 0 when x+y=0. I am asked to discuss the continuity of the function, and, for this purpose, I'll have to calculate a limit, isn't it?

1823: 633: 993:. As Lambiam has also remarked, the function is clearly discontinuous at those points. Finally, it's not nice to lash out at people only because you have not succeeded in describing the problem correctly. -- 409:
I don't see a spot where inserting an equals sign makes the first part more plausible, but perhaps you are thinking of changing x+y=0 to x=y=0. With the same mod applied to my answer, it would equally stand.

It seems that image C is illustrating the effects of scaling a polynomial by a constant factor. Any ideas about what the others represent, and whether they could be of any use if uploaded to the Commons?

I've repeated this a thousand times, so I don't think one thousand and one will make any difference. Your idea will prove the nonexistence of the limit at the origin, not along the straight line y=-x. --

Without regard to dimension, we can take a continuous function and replace the value at one point with something arbitary. Thus we should not assume that a value and a limit coincide.

You need to find the amount in the account at the end of 3 years. You can carry on working it out month by month for 36 months - or you can look for a shortcut.

Of course the function f(x,y) = (x^2 + y^2)/(x+y) is discontinuous at x=-y. It seems the function Taraborn is asking about actually is.

One possible reason (I haven't worked it out) that there might be no "sigma" in the right side is the following: recall that
