Let be a sequence of continuous functions $ \left( f_n \right)_{n\ge 1} :[0,1]\longrightarrow\mathbb{R} $ satisfying the following properties:
$ \text{a) } $ for any natural $ n $ and $ x\in [1/n,1] ,$ it follows $ \left| f_n(x) \right|\leqslant 1/n. $
$ \text{b) } $ for any natural $ n, $ it follows $ \int_0^1 f_n^2(t)dt\leqslant 1. $
Then, $\lim_{n\to 0} \int_0^1\left| f_n(t) \right| dt=0 $
