I have seen examples and proofs of functions that are everywhere continuous but nowhere monotone. However I have never seen a proof and example of a function that is everywhere continuous but monotonic at no point. Do you know of an example (preferably with a proof) or can you provide an accessible reference?
P.S Definition of monotonic at a point:
Let x be a real number. We say that f is non-decreasing at x if there is a neighborhood of x, Nx, such that f(y)−f(x)y−x≥0 if y∈Nx−{x}. We say that f is monotone at x if f is non-decreasing at x or non-increasing at x.
