Free public beta until December 4, 2026: every course is open, no card needed. After that, the first chapter of each course stays free and full access is a one-time $39 ($19 for up to 100 founding members chosen for helpful feedback). Your progress is kept. How the beta works

Entire

Analytic (holomorphic) at every point of the whole complex plane.

A function is entire if it is analytic at every single point of the complex plane, with no domain restriction at all. Entire functions form a comparatively small, well-behaved family: polynomials, e^z, \sin z, and \cos z are all entire, while a function like 1/z is analytic everywhere except at its one bad point and so falls just short of entire.

Examples

  • Every polynomial in z is entire.

  • f(z)=1/z is analytic on \mathbb{C}\setminus\{0\} but is not entire, since it fails to be defined -- let alone differentiable -- at z=0.
