Favorite MATLAB Demonstration

My favorite demonstration assigned for Homework 2 is the 3-D Plots demonstration because it has one of the most realistic uses. More often than not, a 2-D graph does not show all necessary data, and the 3-D graph does. After plugging in the assigned points in order to show a graph, the three dimensional graphs provide enormous amounts of important data through simple commands.
