consider the following in Sage 5.8:
{{{
sage: u(n) = n^100 / 100^n; u(1.)
1/100
}}}
This is inconsistent with:
{{{
sage: n=1.; n^100 / 100^n
0.0100000000000000
}}}
and with:
{{{
sage: v = lambda(n): n^100 / 100^n; v(1.)
0.0100000000000000
}}}
and:
{{{
sage: def w(n): return n^100 / 100^n
sage: w(1.)
0.0100000000000000
}}}
