Definition:Limit of a Sequence (Number Field)
From ProofWiki
Definition
As:
- The set of rational numbers $\Q$ under the usual metric forms a metric space
- The real number line $\R$ under the usual metric forms a metric space
- The complex plane $\C$ under the usual metric forms a metric space
the definition of the limit of a sequence in a metric space holds for sequences in the standard number fields $\Q$, $\R$ and $\C$.
