    To establish non-existence of multivariable limit

    We examine the above function and consider its limit as (x,y)-> (0,0).We take two different paths in the x-y plane for approaching the point (0,0),and find that f(x,y) approaches two different values .This enables us to conclude that the given limit does not exist.For a detailed discussion see the solution given.
