Also known as mathematical limit, lim, limiting value

value that a function (or sequence) approaches as the argument (or index) approaches some value

AI overview

A limit is a value that a function or sequence gets closer and closer to as you change its input (or position in the sequence) toward some target point. Limits matter because they help us understand the behavior of mathematical functions and sequences, especially in situations where we can't simply plug in a number directly.
