Let C[0, 1] be the Banach space of all continuous real valued functions on [0, 1]. For an arbitrarily given nonnegative integer n, let Pn denote the set of all polynomials with degree less than or equal to n. Pn is a closed subspace of C[0, 1]. In this paper, we first prove (in details) that the metric projection operator from C[0, 1] to Pn is a single-valued mapping and it is (norm to norm) continuous. Then, we use the continuity of Pn to investigate the Gateaux directional derivatives, some properties and fixed-point properties of the Mordukhovich derivatives of the metric projection operator.
