\begin{aligned} &x \in(-10,10)\\ &\frac{x}{2} \in(-5,5) \rightarrow 9 \text { integer }\\ &\text { check continuity at } x=0 \end{aligned}

\left.\begin{array}{l} \mathrm{f} (0)=0 \\ \mathrm{f} \left(0^{+}\right)=0 \\ \mathrm{f} \left(0^{-}\right)=0 \end{array}\right\} \text { continuous at } \mathrm{x}=0

the function will be discontinuous when

\frac{x}{2}=\pm 4,\pm 3,\pm 2,\pm 1

 8 points of discontinuity
