A basis , for a Banach space X is said to be boundedly complete [4, p. 284] if whenever is a sequence of scalars for which converges. It is well-known [2, p. 70] that if is a boundedly complete basis for X then X is isometric to a conjugate space; in fact, X = [fi]*, where is the sequence of coefficient functionals associated with the basis It follows that no basis for C[0,1] can be boundedly complete since no separable conjugate space contains C0[l], yet C[0,1] is a separable space which contains c0.
