Abstract

At technical university the topics related to the calculation of the numerical sequences limits and the function limits are got started to study within the disciplines "Mathematical Analysis" or "Mathematics". Students often have difficulties with understanding formally definition of the function limit and the sequence limit. Although, they can have their informal ideas about constraints.

In this article, the authors suggest various ways of visualizing limits as well as computational examples using the computer algebra methods. That might help students to understand important aspects of the formal definition of the limit of a numerical sequence and function.
