Definition 2. Let (X, dX ) and (Y, dY ) be two metric spaces. Let A ⊂ X and
f : X → Y . Let x0 be a limit point of the domain A. The function f (x)
approaches y0 as x approaches x0 if for each open set V of Y containing y0 ,
there is an open set U of X containing x0 such that f (x) ∈ V whenever x is in
T
U A and x 6= x0 .
