MatLab Demonstration
My favorite MatLab demonstration would have to be the contour plot of the penny. From a visual standpoint, it is the easiest one to understand as it also does not contain any complicated set of commands. It is also interesting to see how something as seemingly simple as a penny can be broken down to be analyzed by a mathematical program.
