In mathematics, a bounded set is any subset of a normed space whose elements all have norms which are bounded from above by a fixed positive real constant. In other words, all its elements are uniformly bounded in magnitude.
Formal definition
Let X be a normed space with the norm (mathematics) . Then a set is bounded if there exists a real number M>0 such that for all .
