This example demonstrates the Laurent series expansion of the function f(z)= rac{1}{z-1}- rac{1}{z-2}. Key mathematical concepts include series expansion in complex analysis. The Sequence command is used to generate the series terms. Suitable for university mathematics students or those interested in complex analysis.

AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Plot the Laurent series expansion of the function f(z) = 1/(z-1) - 1/(z-2). First, draw two circles with radii 1 and 2 centered at the origin. Then, generate a series of exponential terms, construct the series, and connect these terms with line segments to form the graphical representation of the series.
