A well-known embedding theorem of Banach and Mazur [1, p. 185] states that every separable Banach space is isometrically isomorphic to a subspace of C[0, 1], establishing C[0, 1] as a universal separable Banach space. The embedding theorem one encounters in a course in topological vector spaces states that every Hausdorff locally convex space (l.c.s.) is topologically isomorphic to a subspace of a product of Banach spaces.
