Hi, I was looking for a symbol in math that is commonly applied when a limit to a function does not exist. Is there such a symbol? I could not find any.
High School Is there a particular symbol in Math for inexisting limits?

SUMMARY
In mathematical discussions regarding limits, there is no universally accepted symbol to denote that a limit does not exist. Participants in the forum highlighted that the common practice is to use phrases such as "Doesn't exist" or the abbreviation "und" to indicate this condition. This consensus reflects a lack of formal notation for non-existent limits in mathematical literature.
