MATLAB Demonstration

My favorite MATLAB Demonstration was the 3-D Drawing one because you could create a shape and then rotate it around an axis and see the 3D outcome. It was fun to see how my different drawings on one side of the axis changed the shape and I liked being able to draw something and then look at the 3D model of it.
