Sorry for improper image. Hope you can zoom.

The correct answer to the question is: Limit does not exist.

If x is slightly greater than zero, the limit tends to 1. If it x is less than zero, the limit is no longer a real number.

Left hand limit is not equal to the right hand limit and hence, it does not exist.

Although the solution does show that x is slightly positive, the question does not indicate this.

Maybe but even mine is correct

If L = l i m x 0 x x L=lim_{x\rightarrow0}x^x , then l n ( L ) = l i m x 0 x l n ( x ) ln(L)=lim_{x\rightarrow0}xln(x) . The limit xlnx can easily be solved using L'Hospitals method, and it comes out to be 0.

Thus L=1.

Yep but not Always
