"Removable discontinuity" means the function is not defined at that point (it has a "hole"), but by changing the function definition at that single point, defining it to be certain value, it becomes continuous. "Irremovable discontinuity" means the function makes a sudden jump at that point. There are infinitely many functions like that; for example, you can set the function to be:

f(x) is undefined at x = -2

f(x) = 0 for x < 2 (except for x = -2)

f(x) = 1 for x > 2

No. It has a discontinuity at every integer value.


Discontinuities of first and second kind?

A discontinuity of the first kind occurs when a function's limit does not exist at a specific point, while a discontinuity of the second kind happens when the function's value at a particular point is undefined or infinite. Discontinuities of the first kind can be classified as removable, jump, or infinite discontinuities, based on the behavior of the limit.

How do you sketch a piece wise continuous function?

A piece-wise continuous function is one which has a domain that is broken up inot sub-domains. Over each sub-domain the function is continuous but at the end of the domain one of the following possibilities can occur:the domain itself is discontinuous (disjoint domains),the value of the function is not defined at the start or end-point of the domain ((a hole),the value of the function at the end point of a sub-domain is different to its value at the start of the next sub-domain (a step-discontinuity).A piece-wise continuous function is one which has a domain that is broken up inot sub-domains.

Is a cosine function continuous?

Yes. The cosine function is continuous. The sine function is also continuous. The tangent function, however, is not continuous.

There are no points of discontinuity for exponential functions since the domain of the general exponential function consists of all real values!
