[parent] Viewing Correction to 'limit superior'
a result by Daume

Correction text:

 Is it possible to add a result. That is if x_n is a sequence in R then

lim sup x_n = inf_n sup_{k>n} x_n and
lim inf x_n = sup_n inf_{k>n} x_n.

I feel those are used often and might be good to add, let me know.

thanks

Yann

Comment from object owner rmilson:
This result is already included in the entry, albeit in the form
lim of a sup rather than inf of a sup
However the sups of the subsequence make for a degreasing sequence,
so there is no difference between the lim and the inf
