Just took a trip down memory lane, back to where it all began for me. On the RM Nimbus 186 PC circa 1989. Since they rolled MESS into the main MAME code stream you can also use it to emulate retro computers like the Nimbus. Picture below is a screenshot showing a quick recursive program that repeatedly draws an ever increasing square with a 10 degree rotation between each. RM logo was my first programming language! #retrocomputing #rmnimbus #turtlegraphics

@leon_p_smith
Yes, I think programming can be a good way to learn mathematics (and more).

Seymour Papert wrote about this in Mindstorms (1980).

I was fortunate to learn Logo and turtle programming on a modest home computer in my early teens. I don't know which was cause and which was effect, but I still like geometry and programming today.

For those not familiar with Mindstorms, a good summary is at

Some LibreLogo from a few years ago: a modified Pythagorean tree with rainbow colours.

A modified Pythagorean treen with rainbow colours. The shaped used is a rectangle with a corner cut off: this makes the tree droop like a weeping willow.

@scruss The PICTURE command can group objects, and also output SVG animations. Although I’ve made a screen recording here as animated SVGs aren’t accepted

@scruss Nice, this version has a few changes to fill the shapes with PENDOWN and PENUP to avoid draw extraneous lines.

@scruss Thanks. Here’s the Sierpinski program adapted to run LibreOffice using the built-in LibreLogo environment https://help.libreoffice.org/latest/en-US/text/swriter/librelogo/LibreLogo.html

One of LibreLogo’s advantages is that the output is vector graphics that can be edited (but rasterised here for convenience).

A recursive pattern of blue squares joined with lobes at the corners. The central square is connected to four other squares. The overall pattern is like a geometric leaf. The negative spaces look like cloverleaves.

😍😍😍

Racket Turtle - library provides a simple interface for drawing traditional turtle-graphics. Racket Turtle has also a stamper functionality, so its images are not limited to line drawings.

Racket Turtle was designed to teach programming and geometrical concepts for middle school students but it can also be used to teach more advanced programming concepts such as lists and recursion.
