I will be happy to help you, and you can get much more help by helping yourself: * There is a very extensive help system built into the Logo interpreter. There is way more to it than I can show you or tell you, even if we took an entire semester. Declare the variable The length will be the user’s input e.g.1 Logo PROGRAMMING WITH MSW Logo Computer Programming Fundamentals N V Fitton Northern Virginia Community College MSW Logo comes fromĢ Why learn Logo? * because it s fun * because it makes us want to think clearly * because it's real computer science Logo is easy to learn, as programming languages go, yet it also has enough depth to do virtually anything that can be done in any computer language. For example: Variables can be used to define the length of the square. Variables Variables are data which can change. Example: Now, you can just simply type ‘square’ and it will automatically make a square In MSW Logo, procedure is the steps for the turtle to do something. Procedure/Subroutine is a portion of code within a larger program that performs a specific task and is relatively independent of the remaining code. FD – Forward/Use to move the turtle forward BK – Backward/Move the turtle backward LT – Turn left RT – Turn right PD - Puts the pen down so that moving the turtle draws a line. PU - Short for "pen up," it lifts the "pen" from the screen so that moving the turtle doesn't draw a line. When we execute commands, the turtle will do what we type.ĥ Basic Commands There’re few commands in MSW Logo. Logo has been used in telecommunications, multimedia, and robotics, etc.ģ What IT Looks LIKE The turtle Turtle drawing area Command Input WindowĤ What is the TURTLE? The turtle is drawn as a triangle in MSW LOGO. Logo is one of the easiest programming language, it’s very easy to learn.
2 What is MSW LOGO? MSW (Microsoft Windows) Logo is a programming language developed at the MIT Artificial Intelligence Lab.
