Mathematically, specifically in Calculus, you can never assign a term or variable as 'infinity'. The closest you can say is that as a variable "approaches infinity", here's what happens. You can never reach infinity. Calculus is a pretty narrow construct, though, so this use of infinity can't be universal. Just when integrating.
