Let ${{C}^{M}}$ denote a Denjoy–Carleman class of ${{C}^{\infty }}$ functions (for a given logarithmically-convex sequence $M\,=\,\left( {{M}_{n}} \right))$. We construct: (1) a function in ${{C}^{M}}\left( \left( -1,\,1 \right) \right)$ that is nowhere in any smaller class; (2) a function on $\mathbb{R}$ that is formally ${{C}^{M}}$ at every point, but not in ${{C}^{M}}\left( \mathbb{R} \right)$; (3) (under the assumption of quasianalyticity) a smooth function on ${{\mathbb{R}}^{p}}\,\left( p\,\ge \,2 \right)$ that is ${{C}^{M}}$ on every ${{C}^{M}}$ curve, but not in ${{C}^{M}}\left( {{\mathbb{R}}^{p}} \right)$.
