We're finally at one of the core theorems of vector calculus: Stokes' Theorem. We've seen the 2D version of this theorem before when we studied Green's Theorem which compared the circulation around a 2D curve to integrating the circulation density along the region. In contrast, Stokes Theorem is the three-dimensional generational to compare the circulation of a 3D curve in some vector field to the integral over the region of the curl of the vector field (note: the kth component of curl is what we used to call the circulation density). In this video we build up the geometric conceptual understanding of why the curl of a vector field would relate to the line integral along it's boundary, and then finally state the theorem.
