My Favorite Demo:

My favorite demo was definitely the Game of Life. The simiplicity of the 'calculations' they used to create something, so (ironically) alive, random, and self-running is just beyond cool. Just watching the program run, as randomly some of the 'cells' die and others live and some 'communities' flourish and others dies off was honestly super awesome and made me seriously want to make a program like this one day in the future (when I am wiser and more knowledgeable in the ways of MATLAB). I also liked the traveling salesman one and how it allowed you to manipulate the number of cities. Also the 3-D surface demos were a lot of fun to play around with and check out. I was surprised by the amount of stuff they allowed you (the user) to manipulate (including the color scheme).
