Favorite Demonstration
Although not the most fascinating, my favorite demonstration was the 2-D plots (Graphics), mainly because of the ease in which 2-D plots can be created on Matlab. During the IB diploma and the years preceding, I had to use much more primitive and time consuming programs to produce basic 2-D graphs I needed for various assignments. However, inputting and plotting various variables using Matlab is clearly very simplistic and user friendly, which is why this particular demonstration stood out to me personally.
