MATLAB Demonstrations
I am not just sucking up when I say that the MATLAB demonstrations are extremely helpful. My personal favorite was the "Gallery". It portrays several different images and figures, including the MATLAB logo, Werner Boy's surface, and the Klein Bottle to name a few. Although we have worked with some very introductory figures, I had no idea MATLAB was capable of producing such intricate figures. The code that is provided that is necessary to produce these figures was also very interesting. This demonstration was my favorite because it opened my eyes to what MATLAB can really do.
