MATLAB

Many of the demonstrations in MATLAB were very interesting; I had no idea what the program was capable of producing. The only thing needed is the right code. My favorite demonstration however was the Code/Decode example. Being a history buff, I thought being able to type in a secret message and seeing it transform into something completely different was fascinating. It made me feel like a spy. It was also fun to play around with the decode function and try to type in code. That took a lot more practice and thinking than I thought it would!
