I have a BA in Mathematics. The limit is indeed determined by the direction you approach the limiting value.
When given without specification, the limit is implied to come from the left, meaning it increases towards the limiting value, which is why you see +inf.
In my experience, as a soon to be mathematics graduate, you really have to research what texts are worth investing in.
As someone who can’t focus on pdfs, I buy physical copies of texts. It’s a pain to work out what books are worth getting.
Springer has some banger publications. But it also has so pretty shit ones. In my experience, most publishers are like that. I’ll never feel bad for pirating a book first to see if it’s worth getting.
