gollark: Also no. It's the limit of it as x goes to infinity, which is defined via ???? epsilon-delta ?????? calculululus ??????? something something Cauchy sequence.
gollark: No.
gollark: pls latex \lim_{x \rightarrow \infty} \left (\frac{1}{x} \right)
gollark: Maybe I should bracketize it better?
gollark: > x->(Infinity)^x?!?!?!?!
