For the set {1, 2, 4, 8}, the number of different sums that can be obtained by using one, some, or all of the numbers is 15.
For the set {2^0, 2^1, 2^2, ..., 2^n}, where n is a non-negative integer, the number of different sums that can be obtained by using one, some, or all of the numbers is (2^{n+1} - 1).

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
