Miscellaneous

  • My favorite demo was the the code for the Klein bottle and the Teapot under 3D visualization. I enjoyed these in particular because it reminded me of a topology course I once took about how coffee cups and donuts are the same thing. The Klein bottle seems to be an advanced version of the mobius strip that is now more like a mobius cylinder and thus impossible to actually create in our 3D dimension.
