Real-Valued Continuous Functions

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Basic Topology 1

Abstract

This chapter continues the study of continuous functions from a topological space to the real line space \( \mathbf{R}, \) called the real-valued continuous functions, or, simply, real functions; such functions play a central role in topology and analysis. This chapter also studies uniform convergence of real-valued functions and characterizes normal spaces through separation by real-valued continuous functions.
