The limit of the sequence ([math]a_n[/math]) is [math]L[/math] if given any [math]\varepsilon>0[/math], there is an [math]N>[/math]0 such that [math]|a_n-L|<\varepsilon[/math] for all [math]n\ge N[/math]. [br][br]The yellow band is [math]L±\varepsilon[/math] and the blue region correspons to those [math]n\ge N[/math]. The green dots are within [math]\varepsilon[/math] of [math]L[/math] and the red dots and red x's are not. The limit is [math]L[/math] if for any given [math]\varepsilon[/math] you are able to move the blue region far enough to the right that there are no red x's.[br][br]Note: To move the window, hold the shift key down while you click and drag.
