Hint: Let $f(x)=\cos x$ for $x\le 0$ and let $f(x)=e^x$ for $x\gt 0$.

You may consider the function$$f(x)=\sin x$$ for $x<0$ and $$f(x)=e^{2x}-1$$ for $x>0$

    $\begingroup$ This new one is not continuous (moreover it is not defined in 0). $\endgroup$ – Dario Jun 17 '14 at 6:32
  • $\begingroup$ @Dario- I don't know what is wrong with me today. I suppose it should be OK now. $\endgroup$ – freebird Jun 17 '14 at 6:36
