In a Banach space, the so-called norm $$ \parallel u\parallel = nonnegativenumber \hfill \\ $$ is assigned to each element u. This generalizes the absolute value |u of a real number u. The norm can be used in order to define the convergence$$ \mathop {\lim }\limits_{n \to \infty } {u_n} = u \hfill \\ $$ by means of $$ \mathop {\lim }\limits_{n \to \infty } \parallel {u_n} - u\parallel = 0. \hfill \\ \parallel u\parallel = nonnegativenumber \hfill \\ $$
