Homework Statement


Let X be a normed linear space. Prove that X is complete if and only if [tex]\sum^{\infty}_{n=1} x_{n}[/tex] converges in X for all sequences ([tex]x_{n}[/tex]) that satisfy [tex]\sum^{\infty}_{n=1} \left\|x_{n}\right\|[/tex]< [tex]\infty[/tex]

What have you tried? This is actually a familiar fact from calculus. Do you remember how in R a series converged if it converged absolutely? And do you remember how that was proved? Same proof works here.
