Favorite Demo

The demo for the 3-D Surface Plots was my favorite because it allowed me to see the same 3-D shape through different plot types and I could see how the many kinds of surfaces could have distinct applications within a certain field. Viewing the shape through each of the types of plots available gave more information on the shapes, which seemed like a very useful tool for the future when analyzing surfaces.
