The following code is what composes the .m file that satisfies this homework assignment. The first part (labeled "Part 1") plays the first line of 'Smoke on the Water' by Deep Purple, then plays it at 2x speed, then 2x amplitude. The second part load the Beatles song, plays it, then reverses it, and plays it again. The source code below is attached, as well as the .wav file of the reversed beatles song. I am not certain what it says in revers, but I have to believe that whatever the random collection of notes is that would be produced by playing it in reverse would not be intentional, or even particularly legible.
