Problem

Suppose ff is continuous on R\mathbb R. Define g(x)=⌊f(x)⌋g(x)=\lfloor f(x)\rfloor, where ⌊⋅⌋\lfloor\cdot\rfloor denotes the greatest integer less than or equal to its argument. Which of the following best describes the possible types of discontinuities of gg? (a) gg can have both jump and removable discontinuities. (b) gg can have only removable discontinuities. (c) gg can have only jump discontinuities. (d) gg remains continuous everywhere because ff is continuous.
