Favorite MATLAB Demonstrations

My favorite MATLAB demonstration was the Earth topography script. I was impressed by how MATLAB could load and plot data in such an effective and visually pleasing way. I hope to utilize MATLAB to display my own sets of data in the most coherent ways possible as well!
