Constructing a uniform convergence sequence
Let $f : overline{Omega} subset mathbb{R}^{N} to mathbb{R}$ be a $C^{2}(overline{Omega})$ function. Can we always construct a sequence $f_{n}$ such that $f_{n} to f$ uniformly in $overline{Omega}$? In this case, $Omega$ is a bounded open set. If I weaken the condition to $C(overline{Omega})$, can I also construct such a sequence as well?
Any help will be much appreciated!

It seems to me that you can just let $f_n$ equal $f$, then the sequence of $f_n$ converge uniformly to $f$.

I see, thank you very much... However, I want to know non-constant sequence with respect to $n$.

The image of $Omega$ under $f$ is a bounded set because $Omega$ is compact. So for a non-constant sequence let $f_n=(1+1/n)f$ if $fne 0, $ or $f_n=1/n$ if $f$ is constantly $0$.
