This week we continued discussing limits. In order to look deeper into the topic we discussed limits approaching infinity as well as the continuity and discontinuity of a function. While I know what we are learning admittedly I am not the most comfortable with the subject matter as I have missed a lot of class this week due to other school activities. I managed to grasp the concept that a limit approaching infinity describes a limit as a function moves farther right on the number line or farther left in the case of negative infinity. In the case of the continuity of a limit I have a basic grasp of the concept however I still struggle with differentiating between the different kinds of discontinuity. A Function is continuous when the function and the limit have the same value, and discontinuous when it is not. I tend to understand a concept better after looking at multiple examples and reading information written different ways, so I often look up topics online again once I get home to refresh the information again. This week I used http://tutorial.math.lamar.edu/Classes/CalcI/Continuity.aspx for a diffent angle while working on assignments.
