multivariable calculus - Partial Derivative and Differentiability

I need help for the following question.



Do the partial derivatives of the function $f(x, y)=min(|x|,|y|)$ exist and what are they?



Also, I don't think the function is differentiable at $(0,0)$ but how should I prove this from definition?



Many thanks!
