    Thanks. I finally understand those numbers and letters that no-one else explained for my math homework research

    @MrPneunomia Don't feel too bad, many of our students take our online courses in place of a tutor. You are definitely not alone.

    Excellent video and explanation, really helped me grasp the concept of the rigorous definition of limits.

    I know this video is only 8 years old but something about the very fuzzy image, the semi-mullet and the cheesy bluescreen, it reminds me of a video from the 1990's.

    Not the best quality video in terms of graphics but it sure as heck has one of the clearest explanations so far regarding the epsilon-delta limit definition. And to think this video was uploaded almost 11 years ago....

    That was brilliant, I finally got it. I've understood limits for awhile now but that technical definition always eluded me

    Sorry but you are confused. The "limit" is always on the X axis and is typically called dX (not delta X). However sometimes it is denoted by h or other symbol. It is never on the Y axis so dY is not the limit as it can be relatively very large if the tangent angle is large (steep). Please ponder and get your ideas straightened out.

      Ayana Cameron hello 😊 i think youre just giving this topic more brainstorming than it actually deserves. it is quite a simple concept take it very lightly then youll be good to go.

  • @MrPneunomia

    and to think I spent 46K $ tuition for Duke University for FAILING to teach me this as simply as this video did for free..

    You can tell he's probably not a physicist cause his definition of epsilon was more like 1/billion and not something like 1/10^35 like you see in particle physics 😂

  • @justinmcdougald636
    @justinmcdougald636 7 лет назад

    why does epsilon have to be greater than zero?

    • @Roycedavinci
      @Roycedavinci 6 лет назад +1

      Because the whole point of the word "limit" is you are getting really close a point, but NOT THAT point. Why do we do that? It's called tangent problem of a curve. Sorry, i'm horrible at explaining. Watch professor leonard on youtube Calculus 1.1 one hour lecture, then watch this (y).
