1)How does the graph of a funtion of bounded variation behave. 2)Why a bounded function is not always a function of bounded variation.Please explain graphically. 3)What purpose does bounded variation serve.I mean why they are defined. Sorry if the question is already asked. And thank you in advance.

  1. On a interval, the length of the function's curve is finite.

  2. Think of $\sin x^{-1}$ on $]0,1]$.

  3. Let $f$ be of bounded variation. It has the following properties:

It is the difference of two bounded increasing functions.

The left and right limits exists at every point within $f$'s domain.

The discontinuity set of $f$ is countable, and $f$ is thus Riemann integrable.

$f'$ is Lebesgue integrable.
