MATLAB Demonstrations

My favorite MATLAB demonstration is Earth's Topography. I think it is fascinating that one set of data points can be used to produce a flat topography map of the world as well as a 3-D figure. I am interested in learning more about the different commands that are being used to control each aspect of the plots, such as the specular components, color components, and face lighting. I am also intrigued by the Viewing a Penny demonstration and all of the scripts in the Graphics section that involved changing certain settings of plots to create different visuals of one data set.
