The Weierstrass theorem is: "Let X and Y be topological spaces. If f : X -> Y is continuous and X is compact, then Y is compact."

It is list in the Compact spaces page without any attribution. My microeconomics lecturer said it was called the Weierstrass theorem. It isn't given a name in any of my maths (Topology and Analysis) notes.
