Is it possible to observe the residue?
I was wondering if there is a way to recognise the value (or at least to say if it is non zero) just by observing the plot of a complex function? for instance, looking at (x,y,real(f)) or (x,y,im(f) ).
Do you have any idea ?

No. Take $f(z)=frac1{z^2}$ and $g(z)=frac1{z^2}+frac1z$. Then $operatorname{res}_{z=0}bigl(f(z)bigr)=0$ and $operatorname{res}_{z=0}bigl(g(z)bigr)=1$. However, the graphs that you mentioned look the same with respect to both functions.
So is there a way to interpret the residue?

Sure there is. The residue at $a$ being non zere is equivalent to the assertion that $f$ has no primitive near $a$.

Equivalent? Having a primitive Isn't equivalent to f being equal to the taylor expansion?

If you are talking about residues, you are talking about singularities. Therefore, there is no Taylor expansion. The function $frac1z$ has no Taylor expansion centered at $0$.

But $frac1{z^2}$ has residue $0$ and it has a primitive: $-frac1z$.

No. Take $f(z)=frac1{z^2}$ and $g(z)=frac1{z^2}+frac1z$. Then $operatorname{res}_{z=0}bigl(f(z)bigr)=0$ and $operatorname{res}_{z=0}bigl(g(z)bigr)=1$. However, the graphs that you mentioned look the same with respect to both functions.
