Answer:

It is a vector space

Explanation:

The set of all continuous functions C[0,1 ] defined on the interval [0,1] is a vector space

as proven below ( attached below is a required proof that it is a vector space )

The set checks out for additivity, scalar multiplication and associativity hence it is a vector space
