Continuous differentiability on an open interval, together with
continuity at the endpoints, does not buy you even one-sided
differentiability at the endpoints. You can see this from
a minor variation of the last example I posted. Let
| x sin(1/x) , 0 < x <= 1
f(x) = |
| 0, , x = 0
f is continuous at 0 and (continuously) differentiable on (0,1), but not
differentiable at 0.
