And
As such, has a pole of order 1 at z = 1 and two poles of order two at z = i and z = -i.
Let be some Jordan curve around all these three poles : for example, the curve parametrized by with .
Then by the residue theorem.
But the residue of a function f(z) at a simple pole c is given by .
Thus .
Then
.
This time, the pole is of second order, thus its residue is given by the formula :
, where n is the order of the pole.
Thus, .
.
Following the same procedure :
.
So <math>\oint_{\gamma} f(z) dz = 2 \pi i \Bigg( \frac{e}{4} + \frac{3ie^i}{8} - \frac{3ie^i}{8} \Bigg) = \frac{e \pi i}{2}.
