Límites

In mathematics, a limit describes the value that a function or sequence approaches as the input gets closer to a specific point. It helps understand the behavior of functions near that point, even if the function isn't defined exactly there. Think of approaching a destination: the limit is the position you get closer to, regardless of whether you actually arrive. Limits are fundamental in calculus for defining derivatives and integrals, providing a rigorous way to analyze how functions behave in small regions or as variables tend to specific values.
