Assignment 2: MATLAB Demonstrations
My favorite MATLAB Demonstrations were:
- Travelling Salesman:
Simply because it is amazing to see a classic problem redone in an intuitive way, with graphical representation. I enjoyed how fast it played out, as well as the amount of configurations it allowed with the graphical interface.
- Earth's Topography:
Because it is very interesting how much well information can be viewed with built-in functions in MATLAB, and very cool to be able to manipulate the same data in different ways. Same goes for Viewing a Penney.
- Controlling Random Numbers:
The ability to have tons of control over the repeating and seeding of random numbers is interesting. The fact that random numbers are so useful and that they are not in fact "random" makes MATLAB seem powerful in that aspect.
