This article gives the statement, and possibly proof, of a basic fact in complex analysis.

Statement

Suppose f is a holomorphic function on a domain UC, and g:=f is its complex differential. Suppose γ is a piecewise smooth curve in U, starting at z0 and ending at z1.

Then, we have:

γg(z)dz=f(z1)f(z0)

This is the complex analog of the fundamental theorem of calculus.
