Consider the function f : (- 2, 2 ) (- , ) defined by f(x) = (|x| + |x - 1|) x + [x x] , where [x x] is the greatest integer less than or equal to x x . Let be the total number of points in the interval (- 2, 2 ) at which f is NOT continuous, and let be the total number of points in the interval (- 2, 2 ) at which f is NOT differentiable. Then the value of + is .

For a real number , let [ ] denote the greatest integer less than or equal to . For a finite set S, let |S| denote the number of elements in the set S. Consider the functions f:(-3,3) (- , ) and g:(-3,3) (- , ) defined by f(x)=[x3] e (1+ 2 ( (x-[x]) ) ) and g(x)=x3 2 ( e(1+x-[x]) ). Let A=\x (-3,3): f is discontinuous at x\ and B=\x (-3,3): g is discontinuous at x\. Then the value of |A|+2|B|-|A B| is .
Let R denote the set of all real numbers. Let f: R R and g: R (0,4) be functions defined by f(x)= e(x2+2x+4), and g(x)= 41+e-2x. Define the composite function f g-1 by (f g-1)(x)=f (g-1(x) ), where g-1 is the inverse of the function g. Then the value of the derivative of the composite function f g-1 at x=2 is .
