I was most interested in the "Viewing a Penny" demonstration because it showed how powerful MATLAB really is.  Although I do not know the exact code that is contained in penny.mat, I know that in some shape or form, it has mostly numbers as specifications for a standard penny. Then with only three more short lines of code, MATLAB was able to make an entire contour map of the penny. In addition to that, the program could simply change the colors to represent the shading and make the two-dimensional image pop out. It can even show another vantage point by tilting it to the side and displaying a surface plot.  All of these functions seem to be crucial in making advanced GUIs that appeal to the eye and are able to combine all relevant and necessary information, which makes it an interesting MATLAB demo.

Favorite MATLAB Demonstration

I was most interested in the "Viewing a Penny" demonstration because it showed how powerful MATLAB really is. Although I do not know the exact code that is contained in penny.mat, I know that in some shape or form, it has mostly numbers as specifications for a standard penny. Then with only three more short lines of code, MATLAB was able to make an entire contour map of the penny. In addition to that, the program could simply change the colors to represent the shading and make the two-dimensional image pop out. It can even show another vantage point by tilting it to the side and displaying a surface plot. All of these functions seem to be crucial in making advanced GUIs that appeal to the eye and are able to combine all relevant and necessary information, which makes it an interesting MATLAB demo.
