In [[Mathematics]], the term '''limit ''' can refer to two different but related concepts. [[Limit of a function]] is used to describe the behavior of a [[Function (mathematics)| function]] as its argument approaches some value. On the other hand, [[limit of a sequence]] is used to describe behavior of a sequence's element as its index becomes arbitrarily large.

In Mathematics, the term limit can refer to two different but related concepts. Limit of a function is used to describe the behavior of a function as its argument approaches some value. On the other hand, limit of a sequence is used to describe behavior of a sequence's element as its index becomes arbitrarily large.
