Favorite Demonstration



My favorite demonstration was "Earth's Topography". It is fascinating how less than 100 lines of code can be used to model our entire planet Earth. I felt the explanation was both clear and informative. Furthermore, I liked how the demonstration showed how to convert the 2-D model to a 3-D model.
