This calculator tries to solve 0/0 or ∞/∞ limit problems using L'Hospital's Rule. Below are some theory notes.
L'Hospital's Rule
If the following are true:
limits of f(x) and g(x) are equal and are zero or infinity:
or
functions g(x) and f(x) have derivatives near point a
derivative of g(x) is not zero at point a: ;
and there exists limit of derivatives:
then there exists limit of f(x) and g(x): , and it is equal to limit of derivatives :
For function, you can use the following syntax:

+ addition
- subtraction
* multiplication
/ division
^ power
