My favorite Matlab demonstration was the one that modeled the Earth's topography. I found it interesting how you could build upon the previous lines of code to move from a simple outline of a map to a 3-d version of the globe. Additionally using altitude points as input values was really cool, as it showed the real world application of Matlab and how it has the ability to translate mathematical data into easily understandable figures and plot.

Matlab Demonstrations

My favorite Matlab demonstration was the one that modeled the Earth's topography. I found it interesting how you could build upon the previous lines of code to move from a simple outline of a map to a 3-d version of the globe. Additionally using altitude points as input values was really cool, as it showed the real world application of Matlab and how it has the ability to translate mathematical data into easily understandable figures and plot.
