We define

  • unit vectors
  • nonzero vectors
  • nontrivial normed vector spaces (defined by the existence of a nonzero vector)
  • normalization of nonzero vectors
  • perfect metric spaces (every point is an accumulation point)

...and show that a normed vector space is nontrivial if and only if it is perfect as a metric space.
