MATLAB Demonstrations
My favorite MATLAB demo is titled "Displaying Topographical Data"; it shows different ways to map out the earth's surface. I liked this demonstration because it was an interesting way to apply MATLAB graphing concepts that I have been reading about to real life geographic scenarios. I also liked that it started out with the most simple 2D graph of the earth, then moved on to a color map with depth, and then finished with a 3D representation of a spherical earth. I had not realized that MATLAB had so many real world applications that did not strictly apply to the math world.
