In this video, I describe 3 techniques behind finding residues of a complex function: 1) Using the Laurent series, 2) A residue-finding approach for simple poles, and 3) A residue-finding approach for non-simple poles.

I also prove/verify these techniques, which are ultimately going to be used to calculate complex integrals (and even real integrals) when applying the Residue Theorem.

Questions/suggestions? Let me know in the comments! Also, yes, I spelled 'technique' wrong at 8:50. Pls forgive my transgression.
