Favorite MATLAB Demonstration

My favorite MATLAB demonstration was the Loma Prieta Earthquake demonstration. I liked it because it used a real-world example to demonstrate the variety of ways MATLAB can analyze data and use the data to create visual displays. It was one of the harder ones to follow along with, but it was also the one that I found to be most interesting.
