Hi all,
some years ago I had to teach using a macintosh lab: due to some
problems with Tk on mac there was no Idle (and no turtle.py IIRC). That
was when I realized how useful the batteries included Idle (-n)
together with the old turle.py really was for me. It is my standard

Not sure what this means exactly, but I'm sure

I suppose, that this is a misunderstanding. In the logo world ofcomputing with beginners, this means to decompose somewhat complex

There are a few important arguments why not to underestimate the
importance of a good turtle module in the Python distribution
(out of the box as vern ceder says).

I think it would be cool to have a simple 2D turtle library which
scaled up (maybe via PYRO) to 3D simulated robots, then (again via
PYRO) to physical robots. But that won't be part of the standard
library, so it's

When I was younger, in 1986, together with friends I wrote a schoolbook
called Werkzeug Computer (Werkzeug=tool). Then I implemented

I am *strongly* considering the inclusion of turtle graphics within RUR-PLE.
However, since it is based on wxPython instead of Tkinter, I should probably
rewrite it almost from scratch (so that I understand it, in any event ;-).
Did you know, that there is a

I want to throw out one idea that worked great for me in my initial
introduction to cs.
In our class our first programs generated simple postscript (ie - turtle
graphics) which we then sent to a printer (well, ghostscript first, to
save a few trees).
By week two we were generating mandlebrot
