TITLE: Show that $c_0$ is a Banach space with the norm $\rVert \cdot \lVert_\infty$
QUESTION [7 upvotes]: Let $ c_0 = \{ x = (x_n)_{n \in \mathbb N} \in l^\infty : \lim_{n \to \infty} x_n = 0\}$. Show that $c_0$ is a Banach space with the norm $\rVert \cdot \lVert_\infty$
I am capable of showing the space where the limit of $x_n$ exists is normed linear space but am having trouble with showing that the limit of Cauchy sequences must converge to 0. 
Let $(x^{(n)})_{n \in \mathbb N}$ be a Cauchy sequence in $c_0$ such that $x^{n} = (x^n_1, x^n_2,...)$.
Fix $k \in \mathbb N$ consider the sequence $(x^n_k)_{n \in \mathbb N}$ in $\mathbb F$. For any $n,m \in \mathbb N$
$\lvert x^n_k - x^m_k \rvert \le \sup_{k \in \mathbb N} \lvert x^n_k - x^m_k \rvert = \lVert x^n - x^m \rVert_\infty \lt \epsilon $   (1)
Thus $x^n_k$ is Cauchy in $\mathbb F$ and so has limit $y_k$ such that $y = (y_1,y_2,...)$ and y is the limit of $x^n$
To show that such a y exists we look at the value of $\lvert y_n - y_m \rvert \le \lvert y_n - x^N_n \rvert + \lvert x^N_n - x^N_m \rvert + \lvert x^N_m - y_m \rvert \lt \epsilon$ for all $n,m \ge N$     (2)
The middle expression on RHS of (2)  is $\lt \epsilon/3$ by (1)
The other two are also $\lt \epsilon/3$ follow from $x^N_k$ being Cauchy and converging to $y_k$
This shows that $\lim_{n \to \infty} y_n$ exists but we still have not shown that $y \in c_0$.
I know that to show y tends to 0 i should show that $\lvert y_k \rvert \lt \epsilon$ for $k \ge N$
This is where I am stuck. Perhaps
$\lvert y_k \rvert = \lvert \lim_{n \to \infty} x^n_k \rvert$ and then we can take the limit function outside the absolute value sign by continuity?
Then we might say due to it being a Cauchy sequence $x^n_k \lt \epsilon$. I know this last bit isn't at all convincing so I could do with some help.

REPLY [2 votes]: We note that
$$ |y_k| \leq |y_k - x^n_k| + |x^n_k| = \lim_{m→∞}|x^m_k - x^n_k| + |x^n_k| \leq\lim_{m→∞} ‖x^m - x^n‖ + |x^n_k|$$
which holds for arbitrary $n$. (the superscript is which sequence, the subscript is the index of the sequence) As $x^n∈ c_0$, choose $K_n$ large such that $|x^n_k |<ε$ for $k>K_n$.
Pick $N(ε)$ large such that $\|x^m - x^n||<ε $ for $n,m>N$. Taking limits($\star$) gives
$$ \lim_{m→∞}‖x^m - x^n‖ \leq ε \quad ∀ n \geq N$$
So putting the two bounds together: With $ε>0$ given, there is $K = K_{N(ε)}$ such that 
$$ |y_k| \leq \lim_{m→∞} ‖x^m - x^{N(ε)}‖ + |x^{N(ε)}_k| \leq 2ε  $$
for all $k > K$.

The step marked $(\star)$ is easy to see if you notationally suppress the $n$:
$$ a_m < ε ∀ m > N \implies \lim a_m \leq ε  $$
as (you have shown) this limit will exist.
