Let (X,d) be a metric space, let (xm)m∈N be a sequence in X, and let x∈X be a cluster point of (xm)m∈N in (X,d). Let (εk)k∈N be a sequence in the real numbers with 0<εk for every k∈N.
1. There is a strictly increasing sequence (nk)k∈N in N, in the sense of Subsequence of a Sequence in a Set, such that
d(xnk,x)<εkfor every k∈N.
2. If moreover (εk)k∈N has limit 0, then for any such (nk)k∈N the subsequence (xnk)k∈N converges to x in (X,d).
