Divergence and Curl (Vector Fields)

Calculus 3 tutorial video that explains divergence and curl of vector fields. We start with a brief review of the gradient, show the notations for divergence and curl, and work a couple of examples of each, with both 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional vector fields. We emphasize understanding of these as operations, explaining what type of object each operation has as an input and output.
