About Me
My name is Rick Laoprasert, and I am a student at Pratt who is planning on double majoring in BME and ECE.
Name Pronunciation
Rick is pronounced exactly how it is spelled, and Laoprasert sounds like LAO-pruh-sert, with LAO sounding like L and then ow (as in the exclamation of pain), pruh sounding like piranha without the "i", "n", and last "a", and sert sounds like the end of insert.

Favorite MATLAB Demo
My favorite demo was Conway's Game of Life. Besides looking interesting and pretty, the demo showed off what MATLAB is capable of. Additionally, looking at the source code for it (found after pressing the info button, then clicking on the link for the code) was interesting because you can see how graphics, the GUI and programming with matrices works.
