limit needs some batteries?

 This is a more elaborate example:

 Tracing:

  lim( (1-cos(x))^10 * sin(x^300)^700 * ln(1+x^2)^300 / tg(x^200)^500 = 

  (-x^2/2)^10 * x^(300*700) * x^(2*300) / x^(200*500) = ...

  
   1 - cos(x) = x^2/2 success 


    sin(x^300) = x^300 success 
      
 etc. About 4 iterations.
