Favorite Demonstration

My favourite demonstration, despite the fact that it is one of the more basic ones in the list, is 2-D Plots. This is because it is the most relevant to the lab assignments we have done until now which require a lot of plotting and it clarified several points I took for granted. Moreover, it elaborated on various other types of plots that I found very interesting to make, particularly polar plots and the stairstep. This demonstration was the one that taught me new things without becoming too arcane by including code we are not yet familiar with.
