Document Summary

As in the case of functions of one variable, a function fff : rn rm is continuous at a point aaa rn if fff (xxx) = fff (aaa). Indeed there need not be even a describable path for getting close to the point (a1, a2), it could just be or become near in a mystic way! As such we have isolated the approaching to (0, 0)" and have translated it to r 0. This translates the question of limit of a two variable function into the limit of a one variable function. For example in example 1 we see that the function f in polar coordinates will look r2 cos sin r2 which is really 1. But since the variable r has disappeared from the picture then like clearly the function f need not approach 0. Indeed for di erent values of the value of f as r 0 is di erent.
