This problem is posed incorrectly.

    The space C[0,1] is the space of continuous functions on interval [0,1] (standard designation).


    Not every continuous function has a derivative and is differentiable.


    Meanwhile, the definition of the map T(f) assumes existing of the derivatives f'(0) and f'(1).

It is a  RUDE  MISTAKE,  unpardonable for a university  Calculus student/professor.
