    The author investigates what are sometimes called \textit{lineability} and \textit{spaceability} properties of the set of continuous, nowhere differentiable functions on \([0,1]\). These functions are called ``fractal functions'' by the author. Several theorems are presented without proofs, of which we mention the following. Theorem. A continuous function on the Cantor set can be continuously extended to \([0,1]\) in such a way that each \(x \in [0,1]\) is a Jarnik point of the extension [for the notion of Jarnik point, see, e.g., \textit{S. Saks}, ``Theory of the integral'' (New York:\ G.\,E.\thinspace Stechert \& Co.)\ (1937; Zbl 0017.30004 and JFM 63.0183.05), reprint: Dover (1964; Zbl 1196.28001)]. Theorem. There exist separable superreflexive Banach spaces of nowhere differentiable functions which do not have Schauder bases. Theorem. There exist reflexive, separable Banach spaces of nowhere differentiable functions, all of whose infinite-dimensional subspaces are finitely universal. Some related work, on the existence of large spaces of nowhere differentiable functions, was done by \textit{V.\,P.\thinspace Fonf, V.\,I.\thinspace Gurariy}, and \textit{M.\,I.\thinspace Kadets} [C.\ R.\ Acad.\ Bulg.\ Sci.\ 52, No.\,11--12, 13--16 (1999; Zbl 0945.26010)], \textit{L.\,Rodríguez-Piazza} [Proc.\ Am.\ Math.\ Soc.\ 123, No.\,12, 3649--3654 (1995; Zbl 0844.46007), and \textit{S.\,Hencl} [Proc.\ Am.\ Math.\ Soc.\ 128, No.\,12, 3505--3511 (2000; Zbl 0956.26008)].
