Example of closed and discontinuous transformation
$begingroup$
Give an example of a closed and discontinuous transformation. This task is from compact spaces section.
I have problem with this, i can't find any solution.

Let $f$ be the identity map from $mathbb R$ with usual metric to $mathbb R$ with discrete metric. Then $f$ is not continuous but it is a closed map. Another example where both spaces are compact: define $f:[0,1] to {0,1}$ by $f(x)=0$ if $x <frac 1 2$ and $f(x)=1$ otherwise. Note that image of any set is closed!.

$begingroup$
Okay, but when f: X -> Y, where X is usual metric on R and Y is discrete metric on R is not continuous? Because closed is clear i think (Every set in discrete metric is closed and open).

@Victor It is not continuous. Every set is open in $Y$ and if the identity map is continuous then every set would be open in usual topology which is not true. See also my second example.
