Abstract
A n-dimensional topological manifold is defined as an n-dimensional local Euclidean space M that is also a second countable space and a Hausdorff space. If a topological space has a countable base, it is referred to as a second countable space. At the same time, continuous function and metric space can help people to understand topological space better. This article will express some basic ideas about continuous functions, metric space, topological space and its properties, and topological manifolds. Moreover, the paper shows some basic ideas of how topological manifolds, topological space and function could be recognized and proved. Through analysis, this paper demonstrates the connection between them, such as using properties of continuous function to prove the definition and properties of topological manifolds and spaces.
