Abstract
Large algebraic structures are found inside the family of those real differentiable functions f on the real line having the property that, for a prescribed subset Z, the continuity of \(f'\) fails at the points of Z, so showing that, even in the easiest case, the L’Hôpital rule should be used carefully.
