How Do You Parametrize Curves for Line Integrals in Complex Numbers?

[chota]

Hi,

I am currently studying complex numbers and I am at the part we have to find line integrals over a simple closed curve gamma(t)..

I know the definition, but when i read a problem I am n ot sure how to parameratize the curve. I was wondering if there are some tricks to this. Would anyone be able to direct me to some useful site about this topic, any help would be appreciated (test in a couple of days)

THank You

Hi chota,

Can you give an example of exactly where you are getting stuck at? Then maybe someone will be able to either help or point you to some helpful resources.
