Writing Demos

Demos in PMTK3 are automatically published to html using the publishDemos() function. To ensure that these demos look nice, please format the comments as follows:

Title

Every demo should have a title. This will appear in two places, the list of demos by chapter, and at the top of the demo itself.

  * The title must be a single line, and the very first line of the file, above even the    function header. 
  * The title line must begin with two % signs followed by a single space, as in {{{%% Demo Title Here}}}.
  * Additional comments that pertain to the whole demo should immediately follow the title  without any blank lines and with each line beginning with a single % sign followed by a space. 
  * This comment block, even if empty, must end with two %% signs before the first line of Matlab code. 

Sections

Break the demo into logical sections using two %% signs. The comment text on this line is used as the section title and appears in the demos 'table' of contents.
