For $x=(x_n)\in {\ell }^p$ with $1\le p<\infty$, letThenbecause the defining nonnegative series converges. Thus $F=c_{00}$ is dense in the l-p sequence space for every finite $p$; this is the density of finitely supported sequences in l-p.

It is not dense in the l-infinity sequence space. For the constant sequence $1=(1,1,\dots )$ and any finitely supported $y$, some tail of $y$ is zero, soHence $1$ does not belong to the closure of $F$.
