- | Caution 1: Man function definitions are implicit, sometimes secretly so. E.g. defining $f(x):=\sum_{n=0}^infty\frac{(-1)^{3n}}{n!}z^n$ is defining $f(x):=\lim_{m\to\infty}\sum_{n=0}^m\frac{(-1)^{3n}}{n!}z^n$ and a Limit definition is always a Task to find said limit. | + | Caution 1: Man function definitions are implicit, sometimes secretly so.

Caution 2: In the function Definition, the domain of the function, as well as variables in context, are stated quite broadly - it must be checked if the to-be-function would return a value for any given input. | Caution 2: In the function Definition, the domain of the function, as well as variables in context, are stated quite broadly - it must be checked if the to-be-function would return a value for any given input. |
