Show that $f_n \to f$ over $\| \cdot \|_\infty$ implies $f_n \to f$ over $\| \cdot \|_2$ and is $(C[a,b], \|\cdot\|_2)$ Banach? Exercise :

Over the space $C[a,b]$ we define the norm 
  $$\|f\|_2 = \sqrt{\int_a^bf(x)^2\mathrm{d}x}$$
(i) Show that if the sequence $(f_n)$ converges to $f$ with respect to $\| \cdot \|_\infty$, then it also converges to $f$ with respect to $\| \cdot \|_2$.
(ii) Is $(C[a,b], \| \cdot \|_2)$ a Banach space ?

Attempt :
(i) Let $(f_n)$ be a sequence defined over $C[a,b]$ that converges to $f$ with respect to the norm $\| \cdot \|_\infty$. Then, this means that $\exists n_0 \in \mathbb N$ :
$$\|f_n-f\|_\infty< e \Leftrightarrow \max_{x \in [a,b]}|f_n(x) - f(x)| < \epsilon \; \forall n \geq n_0$$
Now, let's consider the quantity $\| f_n - f \|_2$. This is defined as :
$$\|f_n - f\|_2 = \sqrt{\int_a^b (f_n-f)^2(x)\mathrm{d}x}=\sqrt{\int_a^b[f_n(x)-f(x)]^2\mathrm{d}x}$$
Now, the last expression can be rewritten as :
$$\sqrt{\int_a^b[f_n(x)-f(x)]^2\mathrm{d}x}=\sqrt{\int_a^b |f_n(x) - f(x)|^2\mathrm{d}x}$$
But, it is :
$$|f_n(x)-f(x)|<\max_{x \in [a,b]}|f_n(x)-f(x)| < \epsilon \; \forall n \geq n_0$$
Now, since $|f_n(x)-f(x)| \geq 0$ and $\epsilon >0$, we yield :
$$|f_n(x)-f(x)|<\epsilon \Rightarrow |f_n(x)-f(x)|^2 < \epsilon^2 \equiv \epsilon' \; \forall n\geq n_0$$
And by integrating from $a$ to $b$ since $f_n, f$ are defined over $C[a,b]$ :
$$\int_a^b|f_n(x)-f(x)|^2\mathrm{d}x < \int_a^b\epsilon'\mathrm{d}x=\epsilon'(b-a) \equiv \epsilon'' \forall n\geq n_0$$
Thus, we have $\|f_n-f\|_2 < \epsilon'' \; \forall n\geq n_0$, which means that $(f_n)$ converges to $f$ with respect to the $\|\cdot\|_2$ norm.
Question : Is my approach to (i) correct ? How would one approach (ii) though ?
 A: Part (i) looks fine, for the second part, define the sequence, 
$$
f_n(x)=
\begin{cases}
0,& a\leq x\leq a+\frac{b-a}{2}\\
\frac{2n}{(b-a)}(x-a-\frac{b-a}{2}),& a+\frac{b-a}{2}<x\leq a+ \frac{b-a}{2}+\frac{b-a}{2n}\\
1,& a+\frac{b-a}{2}+\frac{b-a}{2n}<x\leq b
\end{cases}
$$
for which it is definitely better to draw a picture (we are taking continuous ramps between $0$ and $1$, with steeper slope, giving the ramp less and less time to get to $1$ as $n$ gets large). The point is that 
$f_n(x)$ is approximating the discontinuous function $\chi_{[\frac{b-a}{2},1]}(x)$ in $||\cdot||_2$, since 
$$
||f_n(x)-\chi_{[\frac{b-a}{2},1]}(x)||\leq \frac{b-a}{4n}
$$
where the bound comes from the area of the triangle between the two graphs (everything is $\leq 1$, so squaring only helps us). Since each $f_n$ is continuous and has a discontinuous limit in this metric, $(C([a,b]),||\cdot||_2)$ is not a Banach space.
A: The approach to part (i) is correct. As for part (ii), Consider the sequence of functions $f_{n}(x)=I_{[a,a+\frac{1}{n}]}(x)$ .It converges in $L^2$, but is this sequence uniformly convergent?
