Professor M. H. Stone would not begin to work on “The generalized Weierstrass approximation theorem” and published the paper in 1948. Latter, we call this theorem as “Stone-Weierstrass theorem” which provided the sufficient and necessary conditions for a vector sub-lattice V to be dense in $\"\"$ . From the theorem, it is not clear and easy to see whether 1) “the vector sub-lattice V of C(X) contains constant functions” is or is not a necessary condition; 2) Is there any clear example of a vector sub-lattice V which is dense in $\"\"$ , but V does not contain constant functions. This implies that we do need some different version of “Stone-Weierstrass theorem” so that we will be able to understand the “Stone-Weierstrass theorem” clearly and apply it to more places where they need this wonderful theorem. %K Compact Hausdorff Space %K Vector Sub-Lattice %K Vector Sub-Algebra %K Stone-Weierstrass Theorem %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=72684
