The example in section 7p2 is a particular case for the well-known Cauchy Formula, which allows us to know what the function is doing at the origin (or another general point p) by what it is doing at a set of points surrounding the origin (or the general point p). <math display="block">\frac{1}{2πi}\oint\frac{f(z)}{z-p}dz=f(p)</math>

A higher-order version of this formula allows us to inspect n number of derivatives with the same relationship.
