Help on lim sup and lim inf

[funcalys]

Hi everyone,
I'm currently having problems with these concept, my textbook states that:
Let S be the set of all subsequential limits of s_n, then
sup S= limsup s_n
inf S= liminf s_n
Knowing that S is also the set of all limits point of s_n, however I'm wondering how I could determine this set.
Ex: For s_n=$\frac{1}{n}$, I can easily check that 0 is its limit point but I don't know how to find it.

You say "easily check", and "I don't know how to find it". It's not clear to me where you are stuck. Are you wondering how to show S={0}? If so, how about showing each is a subset of the other?

Please let us know if your question lies somewhere else.

Never mind, I grasped the idea at last , but thanks aw.
