This package supports the calculation of residues. The residue
$\Res_{z=a} f(z)$ of a function $f(z)$ at the point $a\in\C$ is defined
as
\[
\Res_{z=a} f(z)=
\frac{1}{2 \pi i}\oint f(z)\,dz
\;,
\]
with integration along a closed curve around $z=a$ with winding number 1.

It contains two \REDUCE\ operators:

\begin{itemize}
\item
{\tt residue(f,z,a)}\ttindex{residue} determines the residue of $f$ at
the point $z=a$ if $f$ is meromorphic at $z=a$.  The calculation of
residues at essential singularities of $f$ is not supported.
\item
{\tt poleorder(f,z,a)}\ttindex{poleorder} determines the pole order
of $f$ at the point $z=a$ if $f$ is meromorphic at $z=a$.
\end{itemize}
Note that both functions use the {\tt TAYLOR} package (chapter~\ref{TAYLOR}).
