As x approaches 1 from the right side, what's is the limit of ln(ln(x))? Is it - inifity?

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

-inf looks correct. The lnx approaches 0 as x approaches 1 from the right, and the outer function ln(lnx) approaches -inf as lnx approaches 0.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Since the limit of lnx exists as x approaches 1, you can treat that internal limit separately first. That turns the problem into "as x approaches 1 for ln(ln(x))" to "as x approaches 0 for ln(x)," which diverges to -infinity.
