Limit Theorems
In the language of mathematics, the concept of limit Theorem 1: Let c , k , L and M be real numbers, and let
formally expresses the notion of arbitrary closeness. That is, a limit f (x) and g( x) be defined on some open interval containing c ,
is a value that a variable quantity approaches as closely as one except possibly at c .
