Side limits
Calculate the limit of the following function in the point $x=1$:
$$f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{c} x \ \text{ si } x < 1 \\ x+1 \ \text{ si } x\geq1 \end{array} \right.$$
In this case we must find the side limits, because they might not coincide
$$\lim_{x \to 1^-}{f(x)}=\lim_{x \to 1^-}{x}=1$$ $$\lim_{x \to 1^+}{f(x)}=\lim_{x \to 1^+}{x+1}=1+1=2$$
The limit from the left is $2$ and from the right is $0$.
