does anyone know a general way to deal with (infinity)(infinity) type of limits !
pl. help!
pl. help!
An example of this type of limit is [tex]\lim_{n \to \infty} n^n = \infty[/tex]phymatter said:does anyone know a general way to deal with (infinity)(infinity) type of limits !

The value of infinity raised to the power of infinity is undefined. Infinity is not a number and cannot be treated as one in mathematical operations. Therefore, the result of this type of limit is indeterminate.
No, infinity cannot be a limit of a function. Limits are used to describe the behavior of a function as it approaches a certain value, and infinity is not a specific value. It is a concept that represents something that is unbounded or without limit.
Yes, there are different types of infinity in mathematics. The most commonly known type is called "countable infinity", which refers to a set that can be put into a one-to-one correspondence with the set of natural numbers. However, there is also an "uncountable infinity", which refers to a set that is larger than the set of natural numbers and cannot be put into a one-to-one correspondence with it.
The key difference between infinity and approaching infinity is that infinity is a concept that represents something without limit, while approaching infinity is a process or a direction that a value or function is heading towards. In mathematical terms, approaching infinity is a limit as the variable approaches infinity, while infinity itself cannot be a limit.
No, infinity cannot be used in mathematical calculations. It is not a number and does not follow the same rules as numbers. Operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division cannot be applied to infinity. However, infinity can be used as a concept in mathematical proofs and theories.
