I have the following function defined in Maple:
restart;
_local(Psi);
Psi := t -> (t^(-alpha) - 1)/alpha
I want to find the limit of the function as t tends to zero assuming alpha is greater than 0.
(limit(Psi(t), t = 0) assuming (0 < alpha));
However I am getting limit((t^(-alpha) - 1)/alpha, t = 0)
which is not the answer. Also I have tried using Psi(0)
but I am getting -1/alpha
which is again incorrect. The answer is supposed to be infinity.
f := (t^(-alpha) - 1)/alpha:
limit(f, t=0, right) assuming alpha>0;
infinity
