Result
4 Chain Rule - Thanks to "Mathematics Calculus Online Tutorials" by "Harvey Mudd College".
3 Geometrical interpretation of Df(a) - Thanks to Wiki
2 Repeated Limit - Thanks to Encyclopediaofmath.org Note carefully, although it seems that for repeated limits, only the paths along the x and y axis matter, but that is not the case. Indeed the function's values at the axes do not play any role. What matters is the behavior of the function near an axis (neighborhood of the axis).
