SUMMARY
If E is a measurable set of measure zero and f is a bounded function on E, then f is indeed measurable. The proof hinges on demonstrating that the sets f^{-1}(m, ∞) and f^{-1}(-∞, M) are measurable, as they are inverses of Borel sets (intervals). The discussion clarifies that the focus is on Lebesgue measurability, confirming that every subset of a measure zero set is measurable.
