hehe, I like it. Although there is a tad more to logo than just the turtle (in german he is called a hedgehog. Different countries interpret shape-drawing triangles differently.

).

pseudocode:

(Toggle Plain Text)

if (ca$h inserted)
{
do your thing;
}

it's as easy as that.

don't allow the program to do things unless it's met certain criteria.

debugging is fun!

For example, there are command like "fd 100" that makes the turtle move forward 100 pixels and also draws a line while moving. there are more command like bk(move backward), rt(right turn), lt(left turn) and so on.

Pretty much fun for the kids.

:eek:

sounds waaaaayyy too complex for me!!!!!

I've got a binder with the word "LOGO" on it right in front of me. I fooled around with it when I was maybe 8. I never got very far into it, though.
