Nowhere monotone functions and functions of nonmonotonic type

We investigate the relationships between the notions of a continuous function being monotone on no interval, monotone at no point, of monotonic type on no interval, and of monotonic type at no point. In particular, we characterize the set of all points at which a function that has one of the weaker properties fails to have one of the stronger properties. A theorem of Garg about level sets of continuous, nowhere monotone functions is strengthened by placing control on the location in the domain where the level sets are large. It is shown that every continuous function that is of monotonic type on no interval has large intersection with every function in some second category set in each of the spaces P-n, C-n, and Lip.
