MATLAB demonstrations
The demonstration that was my favorite was "Basic Matrix Operations" simply because MATLAB can create seemingly complex arrays and matrices with simple commands. I was impressed by its ability to multiply the elements of a matrix element by element, as well as its ability to transpose. Furthermore, the demo itself ran very smoothly, as MATLAB explained all these basic matrix operations in concise insightful detail.
