<p>In <a href="page.php?w=mathematical_analysis">mathematical analysis</a>, a <a href="page.php?w=metric_space">metric space</a>  is called <b>complete</b> (or a <b>Cauchy space</b>) if every <a href="page.php?w=Cauchy_sequence">Cauchy sequence</a> of points in  has a <a href="page.php?w=Limit_of_a_sequence">limit</a> that is also in .</p>
