MATLAB Demonstrations
My favorite MATLAB demonstration was easily the one on 3-D Plots. This demonstration offered instructions on several different types of 3-D plots that can be used to represent the same data in different ways. Some of the different plots were Mesh Plots, Surface Plots, Contour Plots, Quiver, and Slice. Each was unique and the graphical representation was very interesting to see. I was glad to learn MATLAB was even capable of this, because it could be very helpful.
