The correct answer is: $0$
$\begin{aligned} & \lim _{x \rightarrow y}\left|\frac{f(x)-f(y)}{x-y}\right| \leq \lim _{x \rightarrow y}|x-y| \text { or }\left|f^{\prime}(x)\right| \leq 0 \\ & \quad \Rightarrow f^{\prime}(x)=0 \Rightarrow f(x) \text { is constant, As } f(0)=0 \\ & \quad \therefore f(1)=0 .\end{aligned}$
