Use the Heaviside step function with the value at the jump chosen as follows:For any open set in the target Sorgenfrey line, its preimage is one of $\varnothing$, $\mathbb{R}$, $(-\infty ,0)$, and $[0,\infty )$. All four are open in the source Sorgenfrey line, so $f$ is continuous. In the Euclidean topology, the preimage of $(1/2,3/2)$ is $[0,\infty )$, which is not open. Hence the same function is not continuous as a usual real-to-real map.

TakeIt is continuous for the Euclidean metric, since $|g(x)-g(y)|=|x-y|$. But the basic open set $[0,1)$ of the target Sorgenfrey line has preimageThis is not open in the source Sorgenfrey line: every basic neighbourhood of $0$ contains positive points. Thus $g$ is not continuous for the lower limit topology.
