MATLAB Demonstrations
My favorite MATLAB demonstration is the Loma Prieta Earthquake mathematics demo. It shows how MATLAB can be used to analyze real data in many different ways, including several types of 2-D and 3-D graphs. Even though most of the codes in this demo are too advanced for me to completely understand yet, it showed me that MATLAB can actually be very useful in real-life situations and made me interested in learning how to do more advanced programming.
