MATLAB Demonstration
All the demonstrations on help section of MATLAB including Earth topography, 3-D graphs, and Game of life were so interesting and made me so eager to learn how to do all those applications using MATLAB. However, my favorite demonstration was Viewing a penny. It was so interesting how we could generate a penny using contour graph. Also it struck me how simple the command was to draw somewhat complicated graphs. Moreover, the variations of graph added more amusement to it. My favorite version of penny-graph was pseudocolor plot because it most resembled the real photograph of a penny. I would have never imagined that math could be used to generate such a photographic plot.
