Grand Challenges for Engineering

I looked through the list of Grand Challenges and was very interested in one, particularly "Reverse Engineer the Brain". There is even a project already in place that aims to reverse engineer the brain into a supercomputer, which I thought was amazing.

The Blue Brain Project EPFL In brief, EPFL, updated 09 June 2013, accessed 1 September 2014 (Grand Challenge)


Favorite Demonstration

My favorite demonstration was actually the "Create 2-D Graph and Customize Lines", mainly because I was having a bit of trouble with graphing and the breakdown of all the parts (line style, color, linspace) was extremely helpful and will help me in my next labs.
