in some of the examples , the limit value and the function value are equal , and in other examples , they are not . sometimes the limit value equals the function value . but , sometimes the limit value does not equal the function value .

here 's a classic example : in this example , the limit appears to be $ 1 $ because that 's what the $ y $ -values seem to be approaching as our $ x $ -values get closer and closer to $ 0 $ . it does n't matter that the function is undefined at $ x=0 $ . the limit still exists .

all that matters is figuring out what the $ y $ -values are approaching as we get closer and closer to $ x=-4 $ . on the flip side , when the function is defined for some $ x $ -value , that does n't mean that the limit necessarily exists . just like an earlier example , this graph shows the sort of thing that can happ...
