The MATLAB demonstration on 2-D and 3-D plotting was my favorite to watch and read more about. I am a very visual learner so for me, graphs play a huge role in helping me understand certain topics and concepts. I have never made a 3-D graph before, especially on a computer program like MATLAB and I look forward to learning more about them and eventually using them in perhaps labs or further assignments. "Subplot", "surf" and "meshgrid" commands are among those in the process of creating a 3-D graph.

MATLAB Demonstrations:
