No, I mentioned the problem that Shmuel cannot even calculate limits
of sipmle sequences. And again I mention the problem that you cannot
read simple texts:
See: Grundlagen einer allgemeinen Mannigfaltigkeitslehre (Leipzig
1883)] There he writes: "da doch auf diese Weise eine bestimmte
Erweiterung des reellen Zahlengebietes in das Unendlichgroße erreicht
ist" My translation: Since in this manner a definite extension of the
real domain of numbers into the infinitely large has been
accomplished.
