The concept of limit holds a central point among topics in analysis. The importance of this concept stems from the fact that the majority of the concepts included in calculus curriculum are defined on the basis of its definition. In addition to its importance on the construction of mathematical concepts, the concept of limit is regarded as a bridge in transition to advanced mathematical thinking. Because of its importance in both mathematics and mathematical thinking, the concept of limit has been a subject of study for many mathematics education researchers. These studies investigated various aspects of teaching and learning of limit concept. Among these, those focused on the formal definition of limit are much less compared to others and this is especially true for Turkish mathematics education literature.
