Notes on this post: | ||
|
||
$ | ||
1=lim_(n->0)sqrt(n+sqrt(n+sqrt(n+ ...))) | ||
$ | ||
|
||
Some argues it's $0$ or $1$, that's simply because the form is ill-defined and the post is misleading intentionally, here's another way to look at this: | ||
|
||
define $f_m$ as a series of functions: | ||
|
||
$ | ||
f_m (x) = underbrace(sqrt(x+sqrt(x+sqrt(x+...))), "m times") | ||
$ | ||
|
||
In this form we have two ways to write the original limit: | ||
|
||
$ | ||
lim_(n->0) lim_(m->oo) f_m (n) | ||
$ | ||
|
||
or | ||
|
||
$ | ||
lim_(m->oo) lim_(n->0) f_m (n) | ||
$ | ||
|
||
Limits are not interchangeable by default, and orders matter, when $display(lim_(n->0) f_m (n))$ comes first it's undoubtedly $0$, when $display(lim_(m->oo) f_m (n))$ comes first it's $1$. | ||
|
||
Here's how $f_m (x)$ looks like with $m=1,2,3,4,5$: (Credit: WolframAlpha) | ||

I hope this clears things up. |
