The Attempt at a Solution
So I applied Green's theorem and converted to polar and ended up with -4π, it should be positive.
The orientation confused me since day one with this theorem. When I parametrize C I get <2+2cost,-4+2sint> which IS counter clockwise, which DOES curl in the positive Z direction, so when why does my book say that -C gives the positive orientation?
