As part of MATLAB Central’s 20 year anniversary celebration, we created the MATLAB Mini Hack . The contest starts today on Oct. 4th!
What to do?
Generate an interesting image using up to 280 characters of MATLAB code.
Who can play?
Participants across all skill levels are welcome. Create original entries of your own code, remix others’ entries and make them your own, or simply vote on ENTRIES you love!
How to win prizes?
Those at the top of the leaderboard at the end of the contest will win up to $300 Amazon gift cards, 5 customized T-shirts, or special badges. Visit the prizes section on the contest page for more information.

Anyway we could request more execution time? I have a really nice one, but the 55s is tanking things!
Unfortunately, some people are presenting some really trivial entries - further they do it multiple times, and those "uninteresting" entries receive relatively high count of votes...
More, the premises and foundation of contest - regarding multiple entries, and the idea of voting between participants :-) for each other, is flawed in it's core (respect for the few honorable ones).
The good will in making this contest by MathWorks is appreciated, though.
Edit: How is possible that some people have more votes than views? What is appreciated in that particular situation/entry - the look, the code (?), the colors :-), etc. Please, don't get me wrong, but here is the point - missed.
Edit 2: This: "or simply vote on ENTRIES you love!", is added - on this page, after my comment. Just a fair clarification.
Yo no entiendo lo que están pidiendo. ¿Cómo así que una imagen? ¿Dónde se visualizaría?
Just learned that the use of sym is not allowed, not so clear from the "Use up to 280 characters of MATLAB code"...
For the sake of the fun I had, here is my 273 characters code of the Tupper's formula for MATLAB !
k=sym('258472883803528655680040289415291475415383417456870696929360089652766043747360064898452233239067216157039612601615682896658959'); [x,y]=meshgrid(0:44,0:16); imagesc(circshift(int8(rem(floor(((y+k)/17).*2.^(-17*x-rem((y+k), 17))),2)),[6,9])) axis equal off colormap(copper)
can 1 person provide multiple entries?
Does 280 character includes space
