overview
The main a i m of this Black is to study t h e calculus of functions
of a complex variable. Just as was the case when w e studied real
variables, our approach is first to discuss the nunber system,
and then to apply t h e limit: concept to these functions.

( A f t e r the exercises you may wish
to re-read this section in greater d e t a i l , but our i n i t i a l aim
i s f o r you to read just enough to get a quick overview of what
this unit deals w i t h . Then you should proceed dicactly to the
exercises since our feeling is that the best way to learn this
topic is in term of working specific exercises. If there are
s t i l l certain points bothering you after you have completed
this unit,you way be heLped by the lecture of tRe following
unit which begins with a review of t h e concepts in this
u n i t .)
