My favorite MATLAB demo was the Animation of the Lorenz Attractor. It was really cool to see the "strange attractor"(Lorenz's words, not mine) travel on its orbit in real-time. It is even more impressive when you realize that the path of the attractor was being calculated in real-time as MATLAB integrated the three separate differential equations coupled with this program.

Greetings, everyone and welcome to Gregory McLean's User Page on Pratt Pundit.

About Me

My name is Gregory McLean, and I am a freshman joining the Duke and Pratt families this year. I hail from Laurinburg, North Carolina (don't worry if you've never heard of it, no one has, that's why I usually stick with "close to Charlotte"). I intend to major in mechanical engineering (no BME for me!) and after graduation I hope to work with automotives.

Interests and Hobbies

Some of my hobbies/interests include cars, sports, and video games. I am an avid golfer and you can often find me on the links playing (by playing, I mean attempting to play). I also love basketball, football, and soccer, and just watching sports in general. (I'll be at most of the sporting events).
