Favorite MATLAB Demo

The MATLAB demonstration that I found to be most interesting was the demonstration titled "Earth's Topography." It was fascinating in that it helped show MATLAB's power and ability to create 2-D and 3-D models based off of sets of data. For example, in generating the 2-D image of the world, MATLAB incorporated a set of data to help accurately color the map based on different elevation levels.
