$${f}\left(\mathrm{0}\right)=−{f}\left(\mathrm{0}\right)\Rightarrow{f}\left(\mathrm{0}\right)=\mathrm{0}\:? \\ $$$${How}\:{f}\left(\mathrm{0}\right)=\mathrm{0}\:? \\ $$

$${f}\left(\mathrm{0}\right)=−{f}\left(−\mathrm{0}\right)=−{f}\left(\mathrm{0}\right) \\ $$$${f}\left(\mathrm{0}\right)+{f}\left(\mathrm{0}\right)=−{f}\left(\mathrm{0}\right)+{f}\left(\mathrm{0}\right) \\ $$$$\mathrm{2}{f}\left(\mathrm{0}\right)=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$${f}\left(\mathrm{0}\right)=\mathrm{0}/\mathrm{2}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$

$$\mathrm{since}\:{f}\:\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{continuous} \\ $$$$\underset{{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}} {\mathrm{lim}}\:{f}\left({x}\right)={f}\left(\mathrm{0}\right) \\ $$$${f}\left({x}\right)=−{f}\left(−{x}\right) \\ $$$${x}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$${f}\left(\mathrm{0}\right)=−{f}\left(\mathrm{0}\right)\Rightarrow{f}\left(\mathrm{0}\right)=\mathrm{0} \\ $$
