Let and . If converges, it is a Cauchy sequence. Thus, for every , some makeswhere the triangle inequality gives the bound. Therefore is a Cauchy sequence in the complex numbers. These form a complete metric space, so has a finite limit of a sequence. Equivalently, apply the Cauchy criterion for series. Hence absolute convergence implies convergence.
