          You can draw with TikZ.

            Also with tikz, but now with use of the matrix library. For arrows, edge labels are employed arrows.meta and quoted libraries:



            documentclass[tikz,border=5mm]standalone
            usetikzlibraryarrows.meta,
            matrix,
            quotes


            begindocument
            begintikzpicture[
            every edge/.style = draw, purple, -Straight Barb[angle=60:2pt 3], semithick, shorten >=1pt,
            every edge quoetes/.style = font=footnotesize
            ]
            matrix (m) [matrix of math nodes,
            nodes = draw, minimum height=4ex, minimum width=3.3em,
            inner sep=0pt, outer sep=0pt, anchor=center,
            column sep=-pgflinewidth,
            row sep=-pgflinewidth,
            column 1/.append style = nodes=fill=cyan!30
            ]

            x & 0.900 & 0.990 & 0.999 & 1.000 & 1.001 & 1.010 & 1.100 \
            f(x) & 1.810 & 1.980 & 1.998 & 2.000 & 2.002 & 2.020 & 2.210 \
            ;
            draw (m-1-2.north |- m.north) edge["$x$ approaches $1$"] (m-1-5.north |- m.north)
            (m-1-8.north |- m.north) edge["$f(x)$ approaches $1$" '] (m-1-5.north |- m.north)
            (m-1-2.south |- m.south) edge["$x$ approaches $2$" '] (m-1-5.north |- m.south)
            (m-1-8.south |- m.south) edge["$f(x)$ approaches $2$"] (m-1-5.north |- m.south);

              I wrote two macros that automatically place the arrow above the path and the text above the arrow or below depending on whether the path goes from left to right or not: valeur and fromto.



              How does it work?



              This is done without any positioning tests, but using the properties of the rotations
              This avoids using 4 options that are de facto useless:



              • 2 for the placement of the arrows (up or down)

              • as well as 2 options for the placement of the text relative to these arrows (above and below).

              Rotations



              In geometry, a positive angle is an anti-clockwise rotation. A negative angle is a clockwise rotation.



              angles



              From LEFT to RIGHT



              When the path goes from left to right (i.e. from point A to point B), the points located 5mm from each other are rotated as shown in this figure. This builds a new path 5 mm higher.



              higher path



              From RIGHT to LEFT



              When the path goes from right to left (i.e. from point B to point A), the same is done as shown in this figure. This builds a new path 5 mm lower.
              lower path




              In each case, the first rotation is positive and the second negative. These rotations are performed with the calc library.
              To place the text, I use the auto=left option which allows me to always place the text on the same side of a path.




              The two macros:




              1. The first called valeur place is a TikZ node centered on the number from which you want to start or arrive the arrow;



                newcommandvaleur[2]
                tikz[remember picture] node[inner sep=0pt,anchor=center](#1)#2;


                It has two arguments:



                • the first #1 is the name we give to the node

                • the second #2 is the value of this node.



              2. the second one called fromto draw an arrow above or below the path:



                • if the arrow is placed above the path, the text is also placed above the arrow;

                • otherwise, if the arrow is placed below the path, the text is placed below the arrow.



              The principle is the following: if the path goes from left to right, the arrow and the text are placed above the path, otherwise it is placed below.



              This macro has 4 arguments:



              • the first one #1 is optional and allows to transmit options to the path < options>

              • the second #2 is the starting point < from>

              • the third #3 is the arrival point < to>


              • the fourth #4 is the text to be positioned < text>




                newcommandfromto4
                tikz[remember picture,overlay,auto=left,>=Stealth[length=5pt, inset=1pt,sep]]
                path[draw=myviolet,thick,#1]
                ($(#2.center)!5mm!90:(#3.center)$)--($(#3.center)!5mm!-90:(#2.center)$)node[midway,myviolet,font=bf]#4;


              For example:



              example



              documentclassarticle 
              usepackagetikz
              usetikzlibrarycalc,arrows.meta

                                I wrote two macros that automatically place the arrow above the path and the text above the arrow or below depending on whether the path goes from left to right or not: valeur and fromto.



                                How does it work?



                                This is done without any positioning tests, but using the properties of the rotations
                                This avoids using 4 options that are de facto useless:



                                • 2 for the placement of the arrows (up or down)

                                • as well as 2 options for the placement of the text relative to these arrows (above and below).

                                Rotations



                                In geometry, a positive angle is an anti-clockwise rotation. A negative angle is a clockwise rotation.



                                angles



                                From LEFT to RIGHT



                                When the path goes from left to right (i.e. from point A to point B), the points located 5mm from each other are rotated as shown in this figure. This builds a new path 5 mm higher.



                                higher path



                                From RIGHT to LEFT



                                When the path goes from right to left (i.e. from point B to point A), the same is done as shown in this figure. This builds a new path 5 mm lower.
                                lower path




                                In each case, the first rotation is positive and the second negative. These rotations are performed with the calc library.
                                To place the text, I use the auto=left option which allows me to always place the text on the same side of a path.




                                The two macros:




                                1. The first called valeur place is a TikZ node centered on the number from which you want to start or arrive the arrow;



                                  newcommandvaleur[2]
                                  tikz[remember picture] node[inner sep=0pt,anchor=center](#1)#2;


                                  It has two arguments:



                                  • the first #1 is the name we give to the node

                                  • the second #2 is the value of this node.



                                2. the second one called fromto draw an arrow above or below the path:



                                  • if the arrow is placed above the path, the text is also placed above the arrow;

                                  • otherwise, if the arrow is placed below the path, the text is placed below the arrow.



                                The principle is the following: if the path goes from left to right, the arrow and the text are placed above the path, otherwise it is placed below.



                                This macro has 4 arguments:



                                • the first one #1 is optional and allows to transmit options to the path < options>

                                • the second #2 is the starting point < from>

                                • the third #3 is the arrival point < to>


                                • the fourth #4 is the text to be positioned < text>




                                  newcommandfromto4

                                    I wrote two macros that automatically place the arrow above the path and the text above the arrow or below depending on whether the path goes from left to right or not: valeur and fromto.



                                    How does it work?



                                    This is done without any positioning tests, but using the properties of the rotations
                                    This avoids using 4 options that are de facto useless:



                                    • 2 for the placement of the arrows (up or down)

                                    • as well as 2 options for the placement of the text relative to these arrows (above and below).

                                    Rotations



                                    In geometry, a positive angle is an anti-clockwise rotation. A negative angle is a clockwise rotation.



                                    angles



                                    From LEFT to RIGHT



                                    When the path goes from left to right (i.e. from point A to point B), the points located 5mm from each other are rotated as shown in this figure. This builds a new path 5 mm higher.



                                    higher path



                                    From RIGHT to LEFT



                                    When the path goes from right to left (i.e. from point B to point A), the same is done as shown in this figure. This builds a new path 5 mm lower.
                                    lower path




                                    In each case, the first rotation is positive and the second negative. These rotations are performed with the calc library.
                                    To place the text, I use the auto=left option which allows me to always place the text on the same side of a path.




                                    The two macros:




                                    1. The first called valeur place is a TikZ node centered on the number from which you want to start or arrive the arrow;



                                      newcommandvaleur[2]
                                      tikz[remember picture] node[inner sep=0pt,anchor=center](#1)#2;


                                      It has two arguments:



                                      • the first #1 is the name we give to the node

                                      • the second #2 is the value of this node.



                                    2. the second one called fromto draw an arrow above or below the path:



                                      • if the arrow is placed above the path, the text is also placed above the arrow;

                                      • otherwise, if the arrow is placed below the path, the text is placed below the arrow.



                                    The principle is the following: if the path goes from left to right, the arrow and the text are placed above the path, otherwise it is placed below.

                                    • the second #2 is the starting point < from>

                                    • the third #3 is the arrival point < to>


                                    • the fourth #4 is the text to be positioned < text>
