I know that all Banach spaces are (Hausdorff)locally convex spaces. I would like to verify that the converse is not true by giving an example of a space which is locally convex but not Banach. I am looking at the linear space $C([0,1],\left\|\cdot\right\|_1)$ of complex-valued functions defined on the compact interval $[0,1]$, where the norm is given by $$\left\|f\right\|_1=\int_{0}^{1}|f(t)|dt $$ for any $f\in C[0,1]$. The normed space $C([0,1],\left\|\cdot\right\|_1)$ is known to be not Banach. I don't have any idea if the said space is a locally convex space. Any tips? Thanks in advance...

Locally convex space which is not Banach.

This is sasisfied by the Schawrtz space, which is locally convex but isn't Banach. There is a class of spaces called Frechet spaces that are locally convex and not necessarily Banach. Wikipedia has a few examples.
