If $f:Bbb Q to Bbb Q$ is a continuous function then $f$ can be extented to $g: Bbb R to Bbb R$ such that $g$ is continuous
Is it true?

In general, $f$ needs to be uniformly continuous on $mathbbQ$, but the more specific condition could be considered "cauchy continuity" that is, cauchy sequences in $mathbbQ$ must map to a Cauchy sequence in $mathbbQ$ under $f$

@rubikscube09 No, $f$ need not be uniformly continuous on $Bbb Q$; the function $f(x)=x^2$ certainly extends to a continuous function on $Bbb R$. A continuous function from $Bbb Q$ to $Bbb R$ extends continuously to $Bbb R$ if and only if its restriction to every bounded subset of $Bbb Q$ is uniformly continuous

A function $f_Bbb Q: Bbb Qto Bbb R$ (including funcitons that are $Bbb Qto Bbb Q$) can be extended to a continuous function $f_Bbb R:Bbb Rto Bbb R$ iff it is sequentially continuous. In other words, if for any real number $r$ and sequences $x_n, y_n$ of rational numbers with $x_n, y_nto r$, we have $f(x_n) - f(y_n) to 0$.

A function $f_Bbb Q: Bbb Qto Bbb R$ (including funcitons that are $Bbb Qto Bbb Q$) can be extended to a continuous function $f_Bbb R:Bbb Rto Bbb R$ iff it is sequentially continuous. In other words, if for any real number $r$ and sequences $x_n, y_n$ of rational numbers with $x_n, y_nto r$, we have $f(x_n) - f(y_n) to 0$.
