In nested intervals, let a_n be the increasing sequence from the left-hand side and b_n be the decreasing sequence from the right-hand side. In the definition of the convergence the crucial condition was |a_n-b_n|\rightarrow 0 as n\rightarrow \infty .
Given a sequence c_n and consider a sequence n_i of positive integers such that n_1<n_2<\cdots . Then the sequence c_{n_i} is called a sub sequence of c_n .
It is clear that c_n converges to c if and only if every sub sequence of c_n converges to c .
A sequence c_n is said to be a Cauchy sequence if for any \epsilon>0 there is a N such that |c_n-c_m|<\epsilon if n,m\geq N . (It means |c_n-c_m|\rightarrow 0 but [c_n,c_m] are not always nested. )
We need to know the theorem in which every convergent sequence is a Cauchy sequence. However in the theorem the limit is not explicitly involved.
