real analysis - Confusion in definition of limit and continuity




I was reading from this website,



enter image description here



But as far as I know is not it the same as definition of continuity. For example Kenneth Ross's book has the same definition for continuity



Let f be a real valued function whose domain is a subset of R. Then f is continuous at x0dom(f) iff for each ϵ>0 there exist δ>0 such that xdom(f) and |xx0|<δ imply |f(x)f(x0)|<ϵ



I am confused.

Answer



The only difference there is that for the existence of the limit f(a) does not need to be defined.



For continuity f(a) must be defined (and must be equal to the limit).
