My Favorite Demo
I really enjoyed the Inverses of Matrices Demo in MATLAB Help because it showed a visual representation of inverses of matrices. I thought that the graphical representation was an interesting and educational way to depict what exactly inverses are and what happens when you multiply they together. Not only did I learn how to create an inverse using MATLAB, I also learned a bit more about inverses than I had previously known!
