To commemorate this anniversary, we created two MATLAB Central-themed games. We awarded prizes to top performers and randomly gave out prizes to qualified participants. We made the games even more exciting by basing our donations to the following three charities on your participation.

Based on your participation we raised $2,500 for each of the charities.
