MATLAB Demonstrations

My favorite MATLAB demonstration was the first Klein Bottle. I have spent a lot of time learning about Moebius strips and Klein Bottles, so to see them being plotted in a variety of ways was very interesting to me. The demonstration included the plots of a Klein Bottle, a Half Klein Bottle, and a Transparent Klein Bottle.
