Let f:[0,1]→R be a function that maps rationals to irrationals and irrationals to rationals. I could show that any such f can't be continuous by showing that its range is at most countable and going from there. We also know that for a function g to be continuous, for all sequences x_n that converge to x, g(x_n) has to converge to g(x). So since f is discontinuous, there exists a sequence for which this does not hold. Is it possible to construct it without assuming anything further about f? In other words, is it possible to prove that f is discontinuous by constructing such a sequence?
