{c}

At any point on the imaginary axis, approaching from the left gives limit $-1$, while the assigned value and the right-hand limit are $1$. Thus the function is discontinuous on that axis. Complex differentiability implies continuity, so \b[$f$ is not holomorphic on $\mathbb C$]. It is holomorphic separately in the two open half-planes.
