Abstract:   In this paper we derive functional relations and explicit representations at dyadic points for Takagi's continuous nowhere differentiable function $T$ and also for functions which are connected with $T$. As consequence we get formulas for binary digital sums, namely the Trollope-Delange formula for the number of ones, a formula counting the zeros as well as a formula for the alternating sum of digits.

Keywords:   Takagi\'s continuous nowhere differentiable function, functional equations, Trollope-Delange formula for the sum-of-digits function, alternating sum of digits, Cantor sets.
