MATLAB Demos

While all of the assigned demonstrations were interesting, my favorite was the unassigned minesweeper demo. It was interesting to see how MATLAB could be used to create a fully functional, interactive game that I had experience playing before. While most of the xpbombs code was out of my range of coding experience, I was pleased to find that I could interpret some of the lines, which included the use of if-statements to account for clicking on bombs vs. empty squares, and a set number of rows and columns being defined to create the parameters of the minefield. This demonstration made me look forward to future MATLAB projects, and the potential programs I could create.
