Prove or give a counterexample: for every function f from non-negative integers to non-negative reals, o(f) = O(f) − Θ(f). Here “−” denotes the set minus operation. I try to make some tryout but failed to make the abstract function f to into working, can someone give me some Hints or solutions?

Consider $f(n) = n^2$ and $g(n) = \left\{\begin{array}{ll}n & \text{if }n\text{ is even}\\n^2&\text{otherwise}\end{array}\right.$.
