one sided derivative $f_{+}^{\prime}(0) = -1$ and $f_{-}^{\prime}(0) = 1$
clarke generalized gradient $\partial f(0) = [-1, 1]$ At $0$, the one-sided derivatives of $-\abs{x}$ are $-1$ and $1$, and its Clarke generalized gradient is $[-1, 1]$.
subdifferential $\partial f(0) = \emptyset$ The function is concave, so no line through $(0, 0)$ lies below its graph, and it has an empty subgradients at $0$.
