continuous, monotonic increasing function with special property

92 Views Asked by At

Let $f$ be any continuous monotonically increasing function with property that

$f(x) \in\mathbb Z\Rightarrow x \in\mathbb Z$

In the related proof, it says,

if $\lfloor x \rfloor < x$ then $f(\lfloor x \rfloor) < f(x)$

I believe the inequality should be $f(\lfloor x \rfloor) \le f(x)$ , since $f$ is not strictly increasing.

how we coclude that the function is strictly increasing?
