Stokes Theorem P0.11?

The function in Example # is F(x,y,z)=y^2i+xyj+x^2zk

I don't understand this because stokes theorem is supposed to be in three dimensions I thought, and the function is in three dimension, but it is a two dimensional graph and al the online resources show two dimensions.

    Stoke's theorem says

    vec{A}= curl X vec{F}. Here F is given. The components are {all are partial derivatives}

    Ax= d/dy fz - d/dz fy=0-0=0

    Ay= d/dz fx -d/dx fz=-2xz

    Az=d/dx fy -d/dy fx=y-2y=-2y. Now you have A(0 i -2xzj-yk)
