Can you please elaborate a bit? Wouldn't the process I mentioned above apply i.e making the matrix symmetric first and then use the usual procedure?

There is no specific example but my attempt at one would be to make the non-symmetric matrix symmetric. Then we would be able the usual formulas as designed for symmetric matrices. Is this how it works? Alternatively, do I just calculate the Eigen values without making it symmetric? I don't...

Can you explain the part why 1/n does not converge to a point in (0,1)? Is it because we define limit as |1/n-0|<e, which boils down to 1/n<e which can be made arbitrarily small by archimedean property? Essentially saying that 1/n=0. As 0 is not in (0,1) it converges in [0,1]?

For (0,1), the collection of neighborhoods N_e of q from (0,1) is an open cover. However, there exists e>0 such that it will not have a finite sub cover. Let us take e=0.5*min{|p-q|}, where p=/=q and both are from (0,1). I am not sure if the construction of e here is right, please correct me if...
