$a_{-1}$ term of a function on the punctured plane?

29 Views Asked by At

Our instructor said if f is analytic on the punctured complex plane (missing origin), then $$a_{-1}=\oint_{|z|=r} f(z) dz$$ This may be an obvious question, but what happened to the $\frac{1}{2\pi i}$ term before the integral?
