How can I prove that this function is periodic :












-2












$begingroup$


I know that a periodic function satisfies $F(x+a)=F(x)$




$y=leftlfloorfrac{sin x}xrightrfloor$




And the period of this fuction is $2pi$ But putting $f(x+2pi)$ I can't evaluate denominator inside the greatest integer function

So how can I prove this function periodic?

    Why do you think the function has period $2pi$? That's the period of $sin x$, but that isn't your function.

$begingroup$

For any single variable function to be periodic,



$$ f(x) = f(x+ lambda)$$



should be strictly satisfied. Just having (at least) two sequence of its roots in arithmetic progression is not enough.

    Yes, it cannot be said to be periodic. Even the roots of maxima/minima $tan x = x $ are not periodic.

The result is wrong



First of all you have an issue to deal with at $0$.



Second $y$ is equal to zero on $I=(-pi, pi)setminus {0}$. And there is no other translated subset of $I$ in $mathbb R$ on which $y$ takes such value.
