Let $r_1,r_2,...$ be the set of rational numbers in $[0,1]$ and
$g_n(x)=begincasesfrac1sqrt & xneq r_n; \ 3 & x=r_n.endcases$
This is continuous by definition ?
for all $ϵ>0$, there exists $δ>0$ such that for all $y$, if $|x−y|<δ$, then $|f(x)−f(y)|<ϵ$.

$g_n$ is not continuous at $r_n$: if $(x_k)$ is a sequence in $[0,1] setminus r_n$ with $x_k to r_n$ as $k to infty$, then $g_n(x_k) to infty$ as $k to infty.$

It's discontinuous, for $x$ close to $r_n$ values of $frac1sqrt$ get arbitrarily large, so for small $varepsilon$ you won't find such $delta$.
