It is known that when finding the limits of the multivariable function we have to find the limits using different paths .
Take the path along the x-axis ,then (x,y)(x,0)
lim(x,y)(x,0)f(x)lim((x,y)(x,0))x2+yy=0
Take the path along the y-axis ,then
lim(x,y)(x,0)f(x)lim((x,y)(x,0))x2+yy=1
Using the different paths , the values of the limits is different , then the limit does not exist.
Thus, the given function f(x,y)=x2+yy has no limits
