Thinking Like a Mathematician
Contour integration is a method used in complex analysis to evaluate integrals of complex functions along a specific path, or contour, in the complex plane. This technique takes advantage of the properties of analytic functions and is closely related to Cauchy's integral theorem and residue theorem, allowing for powerful simplifications when calculating integrals that might be difficult to handle using real analysis methods.
