My favorite demonstration was the one called "Viewing a Penny."

You don't normally think of the height differences on the surface of a penny the same way that you would think of them on Earth's surface, so it was interesting to see the different ways you could produce contour plots of a penny.

Favorite MATLAB Demonstration

My favorite demonstration was the one called "Viewing a Penny." I especially liked this example because it applied skills (such as the contour plot) that we saw in previous examples to an object that you wouldn't normally expect to see a contour plot of. You don't normally think of the height differences on the surface of a penny the same way that you would think of them on Earth's surface, so it was interesting to see the different ways you could produce contour plots of a penny.
