MATLAB Demos

There were actually two demos that I really enjoyed. The first was the Loma Prieta Earthquake demo because I saw how useful MATLAB could be in real world applications. It was also really cool to see how powerful MATLAB can be in manipulating data, and how it can be used to generate some very interesting 3D graphs. The second demo that I really liked was the minesweeper demo because it was a game. I liked the game and seeing how it was different than the standard windows version. Overall all though I would say that the Loma Prieta Earthquake demo was my favorite because I actually got to see how something we learn in class can be adapted to the real world.
