My favorite demonstration on the "MATLAB Demonstrations" was "Sliding Puzzle."  As a game that I constantly played as a child, it was very interesting to be able to see the way that this code works, and then also be able to see how the finished product works. The code for this game creates the screen and playing board for this game, and creates fifteen tiles each with different numbers on them. It recognizes that wherever the sixteenth slot is, there will be no tile and thus an open space. It creates code to keep track of where the open slot is, and also is able to see if the tiles on the board are lined up in the proper order.  I really liked this demonstration because of the many parts required to enable this game to run properly.  It is interesting to see the different parts of the code and how they are executed in the final product of the sliding puzzle.

Favorite Demonstration

My favorite demonstration on the "MATLAB Demonstrations" was "Sliding Puzzle." As a game that I constantly played as a child, it was very interesting to be able to see the way that this code works, and then also be able to see how the finished product works. The code for this game creates the screen and playing board for this game, and creates fifteen tiles each with different numbers on them. It recognizes that wherever the sixteenth slot is, there will be no tile and thus an open space. It creates code to keep track of where the open slot is, and also is able to see if the tiles on the board are lined up in the proper order. I really liked this demonstration because of the many parts required to enable this game to run properly. It is interesting to see the different parts of the code and how they are executed in the final product of the sliding puzzle.
