If you're interested in learning why conformal doesn't necessarily mean differentiable, read Chapter 4.VI "Conformal = Analytic" of Tristan Needham's "Visual Complex Analysis", which you can find here: http://usf.usfca.edu/vca/
This book is incredible, some of the ideas in this video were taken from this book. You can find all my sources here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/13...
Some extra info:
At 20:47, I mention that a function is holomorphic if it satisfies the cauchy-riemann equations. This is not always true, the partial derivatives have to be continuous as well.
For example, f(z) = {0 if z=0, z^5/|z^4| if z!=0} satisfies the cauchy-riemann equations but is not differentiable at z=0.
Thanks to Ge for pointing this out!
Mistakes:
3:15: The upper number line should still be labeled as "x" instead of "x^2"
14:56 It should be nz^(n-1)
