My favorite MATLAB demo was "Inverses of Matrices."  While I had learned about matrices and their inverses before, I thought it was really interesting how they chose to represent the matrices graphically.  It was interesting to see how different colors represented different numbers, and how those colors and numbers multiplied together gave a black square with a white diagonal, the graphical representation of the identity matrix.

About Me

My name is Elizabeth Buckley, and I'm currently a freshman in Pratt. I've lived in Durham, NC for my whole life, and now I get to spend the next four years here, too. Exciting, right? Really though, I couldn't be happier at Duke. I know I'll have many great experiences here, and I can't wait to see what's in store for me.

Interests and Hobbies

I have done Irish dance for the past 11 years. It's what I love to do most, and I definitely want to join the Irish dance club here at Duke (there is one, I checked!). I also enjoy cooking, baking, and traveling.
