When is a function defined and discontinuous at the same point?
Thanks so much, I will follow the link and also sketch out the function, pictures are what I need. I have a graphing calculator but, the calculator as we know, is only as good as the input. Thanks again for suggestions.- cinda

When is a function defined and discontinuous at the same point?
I have just finished a pre-calculus review and this is the beginning of my calculus (actually March 1). Trouble with the review was I have been out of high school 25 years. I am very much enjoying the challenges in this course, and have wanted to study physics since I was a very small...- cinda

When is a function defined and discontinuous at the same point?
OOPs... so I could define my function like this: f(x) = { 2, x = 1 {x, x = 0 that is the part I don't get, if my function is defined at a point won't it always be continuous at that point also? I thought that was one...- cinda

When is a function defined and discontinuous at the same point?
Okay, so in the function I used, all the criteria is met for the problem I am working; limits are equal on the left and the right, it is defined at point c also (when c = 1) BUT it also continuous at 1 (which is what I am trying to get away from) So I should be able to define my function, with...- cinda

When is a function defined and discontinuous at the same point?
I think I may be confusing the notation as much as the math itself. When I pick a point "c", does that become the same number as x? As in the number I use to do the limit notation? Does c need to be the same number as the number that x is approaching in the limit? Say I used this...- cinda

Homework Statement I need to create a function and pick a point, I call "c" , where; (1)the limits from the right and left are equal, (2)the function is defined at "c", but... (3)the function is not continuous at "c" I don't get how this works. Homework Equations The...- cinda
