About this video
In this video, I have tried my best to introduce Riemann's #Zeta Function.
I have seen many people have a little problem and misconceptions on infinite sums like sum of all integers = -1/12. In this video, I have tried to understand those using #Analytic_Continuation.
A brief discussion of #Riemann_Hypothesis is also given. The zeroes of zeta functions are also discussed and an example is given on why #non-trivial zeroes of the zeta function are important.
