Thanks! I like to collect mathematical "tricks" like this. This was on the /r/math subreddit a couple of days ago and many people were expressing surprise that they'd never encountered it.

It seems most people encounter this either as a brief coverage in real analysis or in full emphasis in mathematical physics or quantum field theory courses.
