Problem



Let $R$ be the ring of continuous functions from $mathbbR$ to $mathbbR$. Let $A=f in R mid f(0)text is an even integer$. Show that $A$ is a subring of $R$, but not an ideal of $R$.



Silly doubt



Under what binary operations this is a ring? Usually in the case of group it is composition. How to proceed here?



If that part is clear, then this problem can be solved.

          The operations are addition and multiplication of functions, i.e.
          $$
          (f+g)(x)=f(x)+g(x) \
          (fg)(x)=f(x)g(x).
          $$

          The implicit multiplication of the ring is pointwise multiplication of functions, so you only need to find a continuos function that multiplied pointwise with an element of the set takes you out of the set.
