How can prove or disprove that bounded smooth functions have a bounded derivative ? For example cosinx is bounded and smooth and has bounded derivative . I can’t think of a proof to show that the claim is true ,nor can I think of a counterexample. Even a hint would be very useful .

1Since you're requiring your function to be smooth and bounded, consider a function that has bounded oscillations. Can you make it so that these oscillations grow more and more (are unbounded)? – Chris Mar 05 '19 at 00:57
