Wonders never cease
None

A long time ago someone in the forum had asked whether there exist functions which are continuous everywhere but differentiable nowhere. I located that post. It is http://www.goiit.com/posts/list/15/differenciation-plzzz-solve-this-41037.htm

You can see we had all come to the conclusion that there could be no such function.

Turns out there is actually a function like this. See this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weierstrass_function.

Mathematics always has wonderful surprises waiting to spring on us.
