Assume first that . Because all variables take values in the compact interval , each monomial agrees there with a bounded continuous function on . The bounded moment criterion for weak convergence in this case begins withfor every natural number .
Conversely, suppose all moments converge. Let be bounded and continuous. By the Weierstrass approximation theorem, for every there is a polynomial withMoment convergence implies , whileTaking the limit superior and then proves , which is convergence in distribution.
