Convergent sequence is Cauchy

In a metric space, every convergent sequence is Cauchy
Convergent sequence is Cauchy

Convergent sequence is Cauchy: Let (X,d)(X,d) be a and let (xn)(x_n) be a with xnxx_n\to x in XX. Then (xn)(x_n) is a ; that is, for every ε>0\varepsilon>0 there exists NN such that if m,nNm,n\ge N then d(xm,xn)<εd(x_m,x_n)<\varepsilon.

Together with the converse implication in , this links limits to intrinsic “eventual closeness” of sequence terms.
