pointwise convergence (Definition)

Let $X$ be any set, and let $Y$ be a topological space. A sequence $f_1,f_2,\dots$ of functions mapping $X$ to $Y$ is said to be pointwise convergent (or simply convergent) to another function $f$ if the sequence $f_n(x)$ converges to $f(x)$ for each $x$ in $X$ This is usually denoted by $f_n\rightarrow f$
