Assume that S⊂ ℝ n S⊂Rn , and that f:S→ ℝ k f:S→Rk is a function. The statement lim x→a f(x)=L limx→af(x)=L is defined to mean that ∀ε>0, ∃δ>0 such that x∈S and 0 0, ∃δ>0 such that x∈S and 0 0,∃x∈S such that 0 0,∃x∈S such that 0<|x−a|<δ. For example, this always holds if a∈ S int a∈Sint , or even if a∈ ( S int ) ⎯ ⎯ ⎯ ⎯ ⎯ ⎯ ⎯ ⎯ ⎯ ⎯ ⎯ ⎯ = a∈(Sint)¯= the closure of S int Sint .
