For the definition of the limit of a function, please see below.

Explanation:

Let #f# be a function defined on an open interval containing #a# (except possibly at #x=a#)

#lim_(xrarrcolor(green)(a))color(red)(f(x)) = color(blue)(L)# if and only if

for every #epsilon > 0#, there is a #delta > 0# such that:
for all #x#, #" "# if #0 < abs(x-color(green)(a)) < delta#, then #abs(color(red)(f(x))-color(blue)(L)) < epsilon#.
