Well, that's just plain wrong. In the n/x function there's a discontinuity
at x=0, which makes n/0 undefined (if you approach x->0 from the right,
the limit will be +infinity, while if you approach from the left, it
will be -infinity; it can't be both at x=0; it's a discontinuity and thus
not defined).
> and 1/(1+x) = 1 if x==infty
If 1+infinity = infinity, then 1/(1+infinity) = 1/infinity = 0

These dicussions have always been out of my league, but I'll make a
fool and a nuisance of myself briefly to add that assigning a +/-
to infinity has always seemed to me about as sensible as the
following conversation:
Person 1: "Look straight ahead. What do you see?"
Person 2: "Nothing, sir, I'm blind."
Person 1: "Oh, in that case, just tell me what color it is."
