Description

An approximately 800-faceted reflective polyhedron is created, subjected to multicolor light sources, and set to rotating. On my 2 GHz laptop, I get 1.6 rotations per minute. Can your computer beat my laptop?

Excellent job.

??? Undefined function or variable 'con2vert'.

20 Jun 2007 Impartial Reviewer

Cristian, it appears that you tried to cut and paste the innards of this function and run them as a script. This function has subfunctions, so you have to use the more customary approach of downloading the whole m-file and then calling the m-file from the command line.

great little comparison tool. I got 2.4 rpms on my apple macbook pro (2GB mem, 2.2Ghz) running vista and matlab 7.5.0.

I attained 2.92 rpms on my Dell Laptop duo core T2050 @1.60 GHz, 1GB RAM, ATI X1300 mobility graphics

Nice little demo - I got 2.51 rpm with my Dell Inspiron B130 with 1.5 GHz and 1.24 GB RAM Win XP Home SP2 running Matlab R2007a and using the Mobile Intel 915GM/GMS, 910GML Express video card chipset.

it's a good idea but saying 2.5 rotations per minute is a meaningless as randomly saying 4 cows to the left unless u have something to compare it with!!!

2.91RPM, Dell T3400 workstation, Win XP. I'm surprised the MACs are rotating that slow with the graphics they display, but maybe that is why... Have to run it on my Vista machine, which has more intensive graphics.

1.35RPM
