Show that the subspace of convergent real sequences is closed in . Suppose converges uniformly in the coordinate index to . Given , choose so . Since the fixed sequence converges, it is Cauchy, so for sufficiently large its coordinate difference is below . ThenThus is a Cauchy sequence of real numbers and converges by completeness of . Hence , so is closed. Part (a)(iii) proves the convergent-sequence subspace is complete.
