My favorite of the demos was the "Predicting the Population" Demo under the "Mathematics" section. This not only provided examples of code and instructions for graphing, but it placed all of the new information in the format of a real world example. All of this combined made it easier for me, a person without programming experience, to visual what the commands were doing in relation to the mathematical problem posed. It also was able to provide a hint for me on Lab 3.
