Favorite Demonstration
In the graphics section, the "Earth's Topography" demonstration was my favorite MATLAB demonstration. I thought it was incredible that the same program that we are currently learning could be used to generate such an amazing simulation of the earth that could be manipulated by the user. I was especially impressed that you can take data and present it in such an accessible form.
