In the mathematical field of complex analysis, contour integration is a method of evaluating certain integrals along paths in the complex plane. Contour integration is closely related to the calculus of residues, a method of complex analysis. One use for contour integrals is the evaluation of integrals along the real line that are not readily found by using only real variable methods. Contour integration methods include: * direct integration of a complex-valued function along a curve in the complex plane (a contour); * application of the Cauchy integral formula; and * application of the residue theorem. One method can be used, or a combination of these methods, or various limiting processes, for the purpose of finding these integrals or sums. (Wikipedia).
11_6_1 Contours and Tangents to Contours Part 1
A contour is simply the intersection of the curve of a function and a plane or hyperplane at a specific level. The gradient of the original function is a vector perpendicular to the tangent of the contour at a point on the contour.

Complex Analysis: Integral of x^(n-2)/(x^n+1) using Contour Integration
Today, we using complex analysis to evaluate the integral of 0 to infinity of x^(n-2)/(x^n+1). Note that our "n" can be any real number so long as it is greater than or equal to 2. Otherwise we would have a negative power on the numerator and the integral would diverge!
