Based on Example 2.6, we make the following observation: It is possible for the limit of a function to exist at a point, and for the function to be defined at this point, but the limit of the function and the value of the function at the point may be different.

In Example 2.22 we look at one-sided limits of a piecewise-defined function and use these limits to draw a conclusion about a two-sided limit of the same function.
The limit of (x 2 −1) (x−1) as x approaches 1 is 2. And it is written in symbols as: limx→1 x 2 −1x−1 = 2. So it is a special way of saying, "ignoring what happens when we get there, but as we get closer and closer the answer gets closer and closer to 2"

The Fibonacci sequence is given by the recurrence formula u u un n n+ +2 1= + , u1 =1, u2 =1. It is further given that in this sequence the ratio of consecutive terms converges to a limit φ, known as the Golden Ratio. Show, by using the above recurrence formula, that 1(1 5) 2 φ= + . MP2-S , proof
• Distinguish between limit values and function values at a point. • Understand the use of neighborhoods and punctured neighborhoods in the evaluation of one-sided and two-sided limits. • Evaluate some limits involving piecewise-defined functions. PART A: THE LIMIT OF A FUNCTION AT A POINT
A limit tells us the value that a function approaches as that function's inputs get closer and closer(approaches) to some number. The idea of a limit is the basis of all differentials and integrals in calculus.
