MatLab Demos
The Inverses of Matrices demo was my favorite. I didn't realize that you could represent a matrix with a colored graph like that and then also show the inverse in the same way. I thought it was really cool that even these colored graphs will still give you the identity matrix, just like multiplying the regular numbers. I don't know what sort of problem you could solve using this type of representation, but it honestly helped me better understand the whole of idea of an inverse matrix and identity matrix through a more picture-like representation.
I also looked at the Minesweeper and Sliding Puzzle demos, as well as the codes to go along with them. I had no idea you could create things like that on MatLab and the code looks extremely complicated, but they were both fun to see and play!
