Favorite MATLAB Demonstration
Loma Prieta Earthquake
This demonstration analyzes and visualizes real-world earthquake data. It is my favorite because this demo made me realize the real-life applications of MATLAB. It makes me see some of the more sophisticated functions and usages of MATLAB and inspires me to reach a higher level at MATLAB so that I can help solve real-life issues as well.
