Graph the piecewise function \"\\small :

Observe the above graph.

As \"x\" tends to \"-1\" from left side, \"f(x)\" approaches to \"0\".

So \"\\lim_{x\\rightarrow-1^-}f(x)=0\".

As \"x\" tends to \"-1\" from right side, \"f(x)\" approaches to \"1\".

So \"\\lim_{x\\rightarrow-1^+}f(x)=1\".

Left hand limit and right limits are not equal, \"\\lim_{x\\rightarrow does not exist at \"x=-1\".

Therefore \"\\lim_{x\\rightarrow exist for all values of \"a\" except \"a=-1\".
