If $f(a)=0$, $f^{(n)}(a)$ exists, then $F(x)=[f(x)]^n$ satisfies $F^{(k)}(a)=0,k=0,1,\cdots,n-1$.

If $f(a)=0$, $f^{(n)}(a)$ exists, then $F(x)=[f(x)]^n$ satisfies $F^{(k)}(a)=0,k=0,1,\cdots,n-1$.

This is easy to verify. But...

If $f^{(n)}(a)$ does not exist, could we find an example such that the conlcusion does not hold?
