Abstract
In previous lectures, we successfully applied contour integration theory to evaluate integrals of real-valued functions. However, often it turns out that the extension of a real function to the complex plane is a multi-valued function. In this lecture, we shall show that by using contours cleverly some such functions can also be integrated.
