Showing a limit doesn't exist using Delta/Epsilon

[lepton123]

Homework Statement

Prove that the limit as x approaches 0 of 1/x does not exist

Homework Equations

Delta epsilon definition

The Attempt at a Solution

I'm really stuck

 

[mtayab1994]

Use the following definition:

\forall L;\exists\epsilon>0;\forall\delta>0;\exists x:|x-a|<\delta and|f(x)-L|<\epsilon

I know that is the definition for a limit, but I am unsure how to disprove it

 

[mtayab1994]

Well first assume that : \lim_{x\rightarrow0}\frac{1}{x}=L

mtayab,
Please, no more hints until lepton123 shows some effort.
