UC spaces are the metric spaces in which continuous (real valued) functions are uniformly continuous. We introduce a new class of spaces , called CU spaces, in which Cauchy maps are uniformly continuous.The result UC = complete + CU provides a decomposition of UC spaces. Moreover, we find characterizations of complete spaces and CU spaces parallel to those known for UC spaces. Actually, by using simple facts from Analysis, we show that is possible to destroy uniform continuity and preserve continuity in just two ways. The subject, with appropriate changes, could be taught to Calculus I students.
