How to calculate the limit of f(f(x)) if f(x) is a piecewise function?

19.2k Views Asked by At

Say f(x) is some piece wise function, and on some interval it is a quadratic equation. How do we determine $$\lim_{x \to -2} f(f(x))$$ Would it just be first we sub the quadratic inside the quadratic and then determine the solution? Or is there something more? Thanks!

It is $f(f(-2))$ unless $f$ has discontinuity around $x=-2$ or around $x=f(-2)$, in which case it is undefined.
