    This document provides information about the course 18.085 Computational Science and Engineering I offered in Fall 2008 at MIT OpenCourseWare. It contains a parallel table that compares the gradient and divergence of vector fields, including definitions, properties, and connections between potential functions and stream functions for incompressible, irrotational flows. Key points covered are that the gradient of a potential function yields the velocity field while the divergence of a stream function yields the vorticity field, and that Laplace's equation and the Cauchy-Riemann equations connect these potential and stream functions.
