Can anyone give me a counter example of the statement




If $int_0^infty f(x) $ exists and $f(x)$ is differentiable then $lim _{x to infty} f'(x)$ exists.




My attempt: I have thought one. First I draw $1/x^2$ in the first quadrant and $-1/x^2$ in the fourth quadrant. The area under the following curves are finite.



1) $1/x^2$



2) $-1/x^2$



3) $x= 1$.



Now I have drawn infinite number of $y = x+c $ at equal distances in that region. Then I joined those infinite lines by some smooth curve so that the curve remains differentiable. Now I think this function can be a counter example.



I am uploading one picture of my attempt. Can anyone please check it and if possible suggest me a better function.enter image description here

          Yep, this works perfectly! You can rigorize this sort of idea by defining some function like



          $$frac{sinleft(x^{10}right)}{x^2}$$



          (where the exponent of $10$ is simply to make sure our function oscillates fast enough).

            Actually simply $sin (x^2)$ suffices.

            Well, this function is in my memory because of the Fresnel’s integral, which is the first integral I see that converges while its integrand does not vanish. :)
