(a) State and prove the Baire category theorem.
(b) Let be a normed space. Show that every proper linear subspace has empty interior.
(c) Let be the vector space of all real polynomials in one variable. Using the Baire category theorem and the result from (b), prove that for any norm on , the normed space is not a Banach space.
