My favorite MATLAB demonstration is the "Loma Prieta Earthquake" demonstration. I like this demonstration because it mixes so many aspects of what makes MATLAB cool. The code imports three single column matrices with acceleration data, plots each matrix against a created time matrix, plots the functions, before using calculus to analyze the data, convert acceleration to velocity and position, and create plots of these sets as well. The production of these plots is incredible in itself; as a beginner to programming language, manipulating a matrix that is literally filled just with numbers in order to create plots is pretty cool, and its a cool demonstration of how MATLAB can be used to help analyze real-world data. | My favorite MATLAB demonstration is the "Loma Prieta Earthquake" demonstration.

About Me
My name is Greg Shea. I'm from Bainbridge Island, WA (across the water from Seattle) and I'm a student at Duke University in the Class of 2018. I'm undecided with in Pratt, but have narrowed down my choice to Mechanical or Electrical and Computer Engineering.

MATLAB Demonstrations
My favorite MATLAB demonstration is the "Loma Prieta Earthquake" demonstration. I like this demonstration because it mixes so many aspects of what makes MATLAB cool. The code imports three single column matrices with acceleration data, plots each matrix against a created time matrix, plots the functions, before using calculus to analyze the data, convert acceleration to velocity and position, and create plots of these sets as well. The production of these plots is incredible in itself; as a beginner to programming language, manipulating a matrix that is literally filled just with numbers in order to create plots is pretty cool, and its a cool demonstration of how MATLAB can be used to help analyze real-world data.
