TY - JOUR A1 - Appell, Jürgen A1 - Brito, Belén López A1 - Reinwand, Simon T1 - Counterexamples on compositions T2 - Mathematische Semesterberichte N2 - We give a collection of 16 examples which show that compositions \(g\) \(\circ\) \(f\) of well-behaved functions \(f\) and \(g\) can be badly behaved. Remarkably, in 10 of the 16 examples it suffices to take as outer function \(g\) simply a power-type or characteristic function. Such a collection of examples may serve as a source of exercises for a calculus course.
