My favorite Matlab demonstration was the travelling salesman because of it's simplicity and usefulness.  I liked messing around with the graphical program first, and then looking at the code and seeing how it ran.  First, a random path is chosen between all of the cities.  The distance of this path is calculated and the path is then optimized until the shortest path between all of the cities is found.

Matlab Demonstration

My favorite Matlab demonstration was the travelling salesman because of it's simplicity and usefulness. I liked messing around with the graphical program first, and then looking at the code and seeing how it ran. First, a random path is chosen between all of the cities. The distance of this path is calculated and the path is then optimized until the shortest path between all of the cities is found.
