Logo Resources and tips

The following tip comes from  Cecil Road Primary school:

"One of the problems with MSW logo is that it draws things too quickly and so in an instant what might be quite a complicated procedure seems to "appear" on the screen.

To control the speed of the turtle type slowdraw into the command line followed by a space and then a value (50 seems to be quite a good one). The turtle will now move much more slowly enabling you to see the whole procedure taking place much more clearly.

The command slowdraw can also be incorporated with other commands e.g. slowdraw 50 repeat 4 [fd 50 rt 90] "

A good place to start  is the LadyBug (Ladybird) maze.
