1. Let a : Z+
R be a sequence, and form the new sequence : Z+
R,
called its Cesaro sequence, or its sequence of arithmetic means, by

(a) Show that if {an} converges, say limn an = A, then limn n =
A as well. (Hint: First prove it in the special case that A = 0. You
need to show, for any given > 0, how to choose an N > 0 such that
