General Topology, chapter IX, § 1. Generation of a uniformity by a family of pseudometrics; uniformizable spaces

If X is any set, the function f defined on X×XX \times X by the conditions f(x,x)=0f(x, x) = 0 for all x∈X,f(x,y)=+∞x \in X, f(x, y) = +\infty if x≠yx \neq y is a pseudometric on X.

Bourbaki puts the proof directly after the statement, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
