1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data
I would like to be able to compute multivariable limits with a CAS. I have Mathematica, Derive and an HP 50g.
For example, how would I compute:
\lim_{(x,y)\rightarrow(0,0)}\frac{x^2}{y}
2. Relevant equations
3. The attempt at a solution
On Mathematica I tried:
Limit[x^2/y, {x, y} -> {0, 0}] (doesn't work)
Limit[x^2/y /. {y -> f[x]}, x -> 0] (I think this could work, but I need to figure out what f[x] has to be)
Thanks for your help.
