Matlab Demonstrations
My favorite Matlab demonstration is the implementation of Conway's Game of Life. Last year for a Comp Sci class I had to implement Conway's Game of Life in Java. Interestingly, the Game of Life is a universal Turing machine, meaning that anything that can be computed algorithmically can be computed within the Game of Life.
