When Mathematica's built-in Limit is does not seem to work the next thing to do is to load the Calculus`Limit` package: << Calculus`Limit` Once you have done this you get: In[2]:= Limit [Exp[x] * (1/x^2), x-> Infinity] Out[2]= Infinity and In[3]:= Limit[E^x/x!,x->Infinity] Out[3]= 0 There is an even better and more reliable method: just use your own brain!
