MATLAB Demonstrations
My favourite MATLAB Demonstration is the travelling salesman. This is because it solves a similar problem to what I did in my decision mathematics class in England. However, to solve smaller scale problems in the classroom we never used computers to code, but simply wrote out 'old fashioned' mathematics coding. So I find it interesting to be able to read through a full, more complex code, which essentially tackles the same problem.
