Limits
For (x0, y0) an interior or a boundary point of the domain of afunction f (x , y).Definition:
lim(x ,y)→(x0,y0)
f (x , y) = L
if for every ε > 0 there is a δ > 0 such that: for all (x , y) in thedomain of f if
0 <√
(x − x0)2 + (y − y0)2 < δ
then|f (x , y)− L| < ε.

Continuity(The definition is really the same.)
f is continuous at (x0, y0) if
lim(x ,y)→(x0,y0)
f (x , y) = f (x0, y0).
This means three things:
f is defined at (x0, y0).
lim(x ,y)→(x0,y0) f (x , y) exists.
They are equal.
There is an added complication here. Consider

You can do implicit differentiation in the same way as for functionsof one variable.
Example: Find ∂z∂x when z is is defined implicitly as a function of x
and y by the formula;
x2 + y2 + z2 = 5.

This all works for functions with more variables.
Example:Compute fxyz for f = xyz + exzxsin(z) + x3ln(z).
It turns out that just because fx(a, b) and fy (a, b) exist does notmean that f is continuous at (a, b):
f (x , y) =
{1 if xy = 00 if xy 6= 0
It turns out that one has to b more careful (see text) about what itmeans to be differentiable at (a, b) but it is enough if fx and fyexist and are continuous in a disk about (a, b).If f is differentiable at (a, b) then it will be continuous at (a, b).
