How to Use This Calculator
  1. Select the function type (rational, trig, exponential, or logarithmic) and enter the function parameters.
  2. Enter the x value that x approaches; the calculator evaluates the function from both sides.
  3. Left-hand limit and right-hand limit are computed separately; the two-sided limit exists only if both are equal.
  4. For indeterminate forms (0/0, ∞/∞), the calculator applies L'Hôpital's rule or algebraic simplification.
  5. The chart plots the function near the limit point so you can visually confirm continuity or a jump discontinuity.
  6. A limit of ±∞ indicates a vertical asymptote at the chosen x value.

What each input means

Coefficient b
Denominator coefficient
x approaches
The value x approaches

How this is calculated

Worked example, using the default values

  1. Identify Input Parameters
    4 parameters
    Function Type = 1, Coefficient a = 1, Coefficient b = 1, x approaches = 0 = 4 input(s) provided
  2. Calculate Limit
    0 = 0
  3. Calculate Left Limit
    Left Limit
    0 = 0
  4. Calculate Right Limit
    Right Limit
    0 = 0
