MATLAB Demonstrations

My favorite MATLAB demonstration is the 3-D plots demonstration. I think it is very cool that with just a few lines of simple code MATLAB can generate plots that are often times difficult to just imagine. I also like this demonstration because I feel like if I had known about it while I was taking MATH 212, it would have been a very useful tool. The 3-D plots in MATLAB are also very customizable. You can change the plot to look just how you want it to. You can even take slices of 3-D plots, which would have also been very helpful in multi. I think that I will eventually be using this feature of MATLAB quite often.
