Since there are an infinity of ways to estimate the limit, I suggest sticking to the simplest one: def guess_limit(points): x, y = max(points) return y > [ > [1,8], > [2,7.5], > [3,7.25], > [4,7.125] > ] > Then the output will be 7. Or at least something close. For this data set, my function will return 7.125. Is it close enough? Finding a better estimation is more a math problem than a Python one.
