Understanding Limits

Limits form the bedrock of calculus, playing a pivotal role in understanding how functions behave and evolve. In this chapter, learners will embark on a journey to comprehend the concept of limits, a fundamental idea that underpins much of differential calculus. By mastering limits, you'll gain insight into how small changes can influence outcomes, a concept that is particularly relevant in the field of machine learning, where models often rely on incremental updates.

Throughout this chapter, you'll explore how to evaluate limits, learn about continuity, and understand the behavior of functions as they approach certain points or infinity. These skills will lay the foundation for understanding derivatives and integrals, which are pivotal in optimizing machine learning algorithms. Practical examples will illustrate how limits apply in real-world machine learning scenarios, helping to solidify your understanding.

Enhance your mathematical toolkit with the concept of limits, a stepping stone towards more advanced calculus topics that drive innovation in machine learning.
