comment How to compute $\int a^t \mathrm{d}t$?
@RickDecker Everything's easy when you know how. I didn't have access to a table of integrals at the time and, even if I did, I wanted to learn how to work it out. What a ridiculous reason to downvote.

comment Why is 'abuse of notation' tolerated?
I agree, but when teaching a new concept to a student, where there is no context in the mind of the student, then it's absurd to hold to this habit.

comment How do I evaluate $\lim_{h \to \infty} e^{h(1-s)}$?
I understand that if $s$ is negative, then it won't converge. But if $s$ is tiny, it still converges, just much slower. Obviously I'd like to use the one that converges the fastest, so I suppose that's why s should be large. Thanks, I think I get it.

You had an extra $s$ in there. Fixed it.

comment How do I evaluate $\lim_{h \to \infty} e^{h(1-s)}$?
Thanks, but my question was really about the way the limit changes if different assumptions are made about $s$.

Where does this assumption that s is large come from?
