How To Find The Directional Derivative and The Gradient Vector

This Calculus 3 video tutorial explains how to find the directional derivative and the gradient vector. The directional derivative is the product of the gradient vector and the unit vector. To find the gradient vector, you need to find the partial derivatives of f with respect to x, y, and maybe z for a 3 variable function.
