<blockquote>Green's and Stokes' Theorems are actually the same thing (Stokes' is more general).

Green's theorem is simply Stokes' theorem in the plane. Green's theorem deals with 2-dimensional regions, and Stokes' theorem deals with 3-dimensional regions. Thus, Stokes' is more general, but it is easier to learn Green's theorem first, then expand it into Stokes'.<cite>https://betterexplained.com/~kazad/resources/math/Stokes_and_Green/green.htm</cite></blockquote> | Green's theorem is simply Stokes' theorem in the plane.
