I am asked to find an example of a discontinuous functionf:[0,1]→R where the intermediate value theorem fails. I went over the intermediate value theorem today
Let f:[a,b]→R be a continuous function. Suppose that there exists a y such that f(a)<y<f(b) or f(a)>y>f(b). Then there exists a c∈[a,b] such that f(c)=y.
I understand the theory behind it, however, we did not go over many example of how to use it to solve such problems so I do not really know where to begin
