Put . Uniform convergence means , and continuity ensures that the functions have Riemann integrals. The integral triangle inequality givesThis proves that uniform convergence preserves integrals on a compact interval.
For the derivative assertion, take and . These functions are differentiable, with , so their convergence is uniform. However, whereas . The derivatives therefore need not converge even at one interior point.
