Meaning symbol $\overline{\lim_{n\rightarrow \infty}}$

Question

I found this symbol on a math book that I'm studying. It had never happened before. What does this mean?

$$\overline{\lim_{n\rightarrow \infty}}$$

It's another notation for $\limsup$. \varlimsup produces $\varlimsup$ in $\LaTeX$. — Daniel Fischer, Apr 22 '14 at 21:17

It's another notation for $\limsup$. $\LaTeX$ has the command \varlimsup to produce it: $\varlimsup$. Similar is \varliminf producing $\varliminf$ for $\liminf$.
