Help understanding norm in $mathcal{L}(X, mathbb{R}) $ and unbounded linear operator

if $f in mathcal{L}(X, mathbb{R} ) $ is discontinuous at $0$ in $X$ , show that ${x_n} rightarrow 0 $ with $f(x_n)=1$ for all n.





Since $f$ is discontinuous at $0$ then $||f||=+ infty $, but I need to find ${x_n} rightarrow 0 $ with $f(x_n) = 1$
$forall n$ I don't get it here...



is $||f||=sup_{||x||=1} |f(x)|$ ?



I have find that $x_n= frac{1}{sum f(xn)} rightarrow 0$ if $f(x_n)=1$ for all n.

          Since $f$ is an unbounded linear operator, we can find a sequence ${y_n}_n subseteq {yin Xmid lVert yrVert le 1}$ such that $|f(y_n)| rightarrow infty$. Let $x_n = frac{y_n}{f(y_n)}$, then $f(x_n) = 1$ and $lVert x_nrVert le frac 1{|f(y_n)|}$. Since $frac 1{|f(y_n)|} rightarrow 0$, $x_nrightarrow 0$.
