Assignment 1

Assignment 2

After completing the phonetic survey and the matlab demos, I found the Klein Bottle 3D Visualization Demo to be the most interesting. This example made me really think about the mathematics behind the shape. A Kelin Bottle, as can be seen here, [1] has a very interesting shape that can be formed through manipulation of variables in mathematics. What amused me most was how this shape was formed in MATLAB. After analyzing the code it became apparent that the bottle was created through the merging of separate parts. First the handle was created using trigonometry and the set parameters, then the bulb was made, and lastly the bottom half of the bottle was created. Overall, I found this demo to be interesting because of the creativity in mathematics that led to such a bizarre shape.
