Favorite MATLAB Demonstration

After completing the second homework assignment, my favorite MATLAB demonstration is the "Basic Matrix Operations" tutorial because it was very useful in introducing the underlying concepts that are necessary for all MATLAB functions. The initial creation of figures with grids, graphical representations of data, and the ways to manipulate and change matrices are fundamental in understanding how MATLAB presents the inputs the user puts into the program.
