Favorite Demonstration

Traveling Salesman is my favorite demonstration. I really enjoy watching the lines move around until they no longer intersect. In my opinion it gets more fun to watch with the more cities that you pick to be included. I also think it is really interesting. I think that it is really cool that the program is able to, by itself, connect the cities and find the shortest distance between all of them. This program just really caught my eye and I enjoyed playing around with it and changing the number of cities. For all these reasons, Traveling Salesman is my favorite demonstration.
