This is the 65th video in a series explaining the Riemann zeta function. The idea of the series is to start with basics and eventually work our way to advanced topics. We follow the text "Riemann's Zeta Function" by H.M. Edwards. This particular video covers the Euler-Maclaurin and Riemann-Siegel formulas in detail and goes through computational examples. We also discuss algorithmically how to find a zero of the zeta function. 00:00 - Intro 01:39 - Part 1: Euler-Maclaurin formula 21:30 - Part 2: Riemann-Siegel formula 33:12 - How to find a zero of the zeta function 38:22 - Historical table of methods used to compute zeta zeros
