Composition with preserves continuity, so maps the space of continuous functions on a compact space into itself and is linear. Since maps onto itself,For , the mean value theorem applied to givesThe same bound holds at . Each has uniform continuity by the Heine-Cantor theorem. With its modulus of continuity , we obtainAlternatively, the bound proves convergence on every polynomial; the Weierstrass approximation theorem makes these a dense subset of , and the Banach-Steinhaus convergence theorem with gives the same conclusion.
