The discussion centers on examples of functions that are Riemann integrable but lack a derivative at certain points. The function f(x) is highlighted, where f(x) equals 0 for x ≤ 0 and 1 for x > 0, illustrating integrability with no derivative at x = 0. Additionally, functions with finite jump discontinuities are noted as Riemann integrable yet non-differentiable at those points. The Weierstrass function is mentioned as a continuous function that is nowhere differentiable, reinforcing the concept that integrability does not guarantee differentiability. The conversation also corrects a misconception regarding the differentiability of the integral of |t| at x = 0.
