Let $(X,d)$ be a metric space. If $K⊆X$, and $K$ is a closed set. Does that mean any Cauchy sequence in $K$ converges in $K$?
If no, could someone give an example?
If yes, then what is the difference between complete sets and closed sets?

The rationals are closed in the rationals, but obviously not complete. For strict inclusion, take $\mathbb{Q} \cap [0,1]$ in $\mathbb{Q}$. Also not complete, but closed.
Incidentally, complete implies closed. Just look at limit points and sequences.
