Grad Student's Guide to Limits

This document is an introduction to a student paper that follows a typical structure: an introduction to explain the purpose, a literature review that is often too long as students try to show their research abilities, and a conclusion acknowledging that the paper is just a start. The literature review discusses the definition of a limit in mathematics as the value a function approaches as the input approaches a certain value and provides the formal epsilon-delta definition of a limit.

1. Introduction
This is where you tell people why they should bother reading your article.
2. Literature Review
This is the section that is invariably much longer than it should be, and
where everyone tries to impress peers about how easy it is to locate various
references in on line databases.The limit of f(x) as x approaches x
0
is the
number L if the if the following criterion holds: Given any radius > 0 aout
L, there exists a radius about x
0
such that for all x,
0 < |x x
0
| < implies |f(x) L| <
If a function f(x) has a limit L as x approaches x
0
, it is denoted by
lim
xx0
f(x) = L
3. Conclusion
Not much of a paper, but its a start.
