Turtle graphics are often associated with the Logo programming language. [2] Seymour Papert added support for turtle graphics to Logo in the late 1960s to support his version of the turtle robot, a simple robot controlled from the user's workstation that is designed to carry out the drawing functions assigned to it using a small retractable pen set into or attached to the robot's body.
LibreLogo is an integrated development environment (IDE) for computer programming in the programming language Python, which works like the language Logo using interactive vector turtle graphics. Its final output is a vector graphics rendition within the LibreOffice suite. It can be used for education and desktop publishing.
The first working Logo turtle robot was created in 1969. A display turtle preceded the physical floor turtle. Modern Logo has not changed very much from the basic concepts predating the first turtle. The first turtle was a tethered floor roamer, not radio-controlled or wireless. At BBN Paul Wexelblat developed a turtle named Irving that had ...
Users write code in a dialect of the Logo programming language to move a customizable cursor (initially in the shape of a turtle), draw shapes, or to make dialog boxes appear. The user may write code in one of two areas of the program, using the program's "command module" to execute short commands immediately or the "procedure page" for more ...
Delta Drawing Learning Program, later retitled Delta Drawing Today, is a turtle graphics drawing program developed by Computer Access Corporation, [1] and published by Spinnaker Software in 1983. Delta Drawing was intended for children age 4 to 14. It features a functional programming language for executing scripted drawing and painting ...
Turtle robots are commercially available and are common projects for robotics hobbyists. Turtle robots are closely associated with the work of Seymour Papert and the common use of the Logo programming language in computer education of the 1980s. Turtles specifically designed for use with Logo systems often come with pen mechanisms allowing the ...
The algorithm selects one point p randomly and uniformly from P, and recursively finds the minimal circle containing P – {p}, i.e. all of the other points in P except p. If the returned circle also encloses p, it is the minimal circle for the whole of P and is returned. Otherwise, point p must lie on the boundary of the result circle.
Ezhil, in Tamil language script (Tamil: எழில், romanized: Eḻil, lit. 'beauty', Tamil pronunciation:), is a compact, open source, interpreted, programming language, originally designed to enable native-Tamil speaking students, K-12 age-group to learn computer programming, and enable learning numeracy and computing, outside of linguistic expertise in predominately English language ...
