I personally found two demos to be absolutely fascinating: the game of life and the traveling salesman. the game of life had set results for so many potential occurances, and with just a few intial life forms (and a lot of luck) the whole screen could be bloomling with life in seconds. As for the traveling salesman, I was impressed with the speed at which the shortest path between 50 cities was calculated... but if I was a traveling salesman, I'm sure I would get more use out of the minesweeper demo. | I personally found two demos to be absolutely fascinating: the game of life and the traveling salesman. the game of life had set results for so many potential occurances, and with just a few intial life forms (and a lot of luck) the whole screen could be bloomling with life in seconds.

Homework 2 Research
I personally found two demos to be absolutely fascinating: the game of life and the traveling salesman. the game of life had set results for so many potential occurances, and with just a few intial life forms (and a lot of luck) the whole screen could be bloomling with life in seconds. As for the traveling salesman, I was impressed with the speed at which the shortest path between 50 cities was calculated... but if I was a traveling salesman, I'm sure I would get more use out of the minesweeper demo.
