MATLAB Demonstrations

Regarding the MATLAB demonstrations, my favorite example was a tie between the page on Earth's Topography and the page on Viewing a Penny. I liked these two graphic demonstrations because to me, it is amazing how a program such as MATLAB is able to create such vivid depictions of both a real life object (the penny) and the geography of the globe. In terms of Viewing a Penny, it was fascinating to see the sense of depth and perception created by the contour plots that I would have otherwise thought impossible for a program like MATLAB. In a similar sense on the Earth's Topography page, I was impressed by how three dimensional each image produced by MATLAB looked. To this end, these two graphic demonstrations were definitely the ones that I liked the most.
