Turtle Graphics in Miranda
by Eniko Bogdan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
The Turtle Graphics program is written in Miranda version 2.009 (Nov.
1989), a pure functional language. Turtle Graphics is an interactive
program and it prompts for turtle commands. Turtle commands help to
produce drawings which are displayed on a visual interface. Turtle
Graphics consists on moving the turtle on the screen, producing
geometric designs. A geometric design is a sequence of connected
lines, whose symmetry and regularity provokes the user investigate
deeper in geometry and number theory.
A not so "pure" extension of SML of New Jersey with asynchronous I/O from
CMU (I will try to dig out some refs) is also worth investigating.
Regards,
