Welcome back to a new school year! In this video, I begin by defining the Cauchy Principal Value and proving a couple of theorems about it. Then, I use those theorems to establish a technique which may be used to evaluate improper integrals of certain rational functions, after which I conclude by applying this technique to a simple example.
If you would like me to do more complicated examples (since some of you may like them), let me know in the comments! For now though, I'm going to temporarily move away from Complex Variables and focus on my other playlists (though I do plan on returning for videos on topics like conformal mapping *wink*).
Questions/requests? Let me know in the comments below!
