Multivariate Limits
The limit command in Maple 2019 has been enhanced for the case of limits of quotients of multivariate functions:
Many such limits that could not be determined previously are now computable, including all of the following examples.
Returning ranges instead of undefined in the bivariate case
limitx yx2+y2,x=0,y=0
−12..12
limitx+y2x2−x y+y2,x=0,y=0
0..4
Support for functions containing abs or radicals
f≔x+|y|x2+y2:
limitf,x=0,y=0
undefined
