Logo programming language From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. The Logo programming language is a reflective functional programming language . It is an adaptation by Wally Feurzeig and Seymour Papert of the Lisp programming language that is easier to read; it has been called Lisp without the parentheses. Today, it is known mainly for its "turtle graphics", but it also has significant facilities for handling lists, files, and I/O. Logo can be used to teach most computer science concepts, as UC Berkeley Professor Brian Harvey does in his "Computer Science Logo Style" trilogy. It can also be used to prepare "microworlds" for students to investigate.

Computer Science Logo Style volume 3: Beyond Programming Preface Brian Harvey University of California, Berkeley Download PDF version Back to Table of Contents [no back] chapter thread NEXT MIT Press web page for Computer Science Logo Style The phrase "computer science" is still, in some circles, battling for acceptance. Some people, not necessarily antagonistic to computers, consider it an illegitimate merger of two disconnected ideas (much as I feel myself about the phrase "computer literacy"). They don't see where the science comes in; what is taught in computer science departments is mostly how-to tricks of the trade, comparable to medical or legal training. Such training is valuable to the individual and to society, but the trainees are not learning to be scientists. My own feeling is that there is some truth on both sides. There is some science in computer science. Abelson and Sussman, in Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs, use the words "complexity" and "process" to explain what it is that computer scientists study. A process need not take place inside a computer, but it happens that computer processes are particularly amenable to formal study and they shed light on the idea of process in general. On the other hand, Abelson and Sussman are exceptional. A great deal of what is called computer science is much more a matter of programming techniques; many computer science students are first offered courses in several different programming languages and then taught specific techniques for particular problem domains, like graphics or data base systems or compiler construction. And many students who find themselves in computer science departments because they love programming computers are impatient with theory and weak in mathematical sophistication. Such students are perfectly satisfied with the how-to approach. (I don't mean this as an insult. I have in mind some excellent students I've taught who are brilliant programmers, very intelligent people, but happen not to have a theoretical bent.)

31. LOGO As A Programming Language For Educational Applications According to Billstein, Libeskind and Lott in logo programming and Problem Solving, Logo is intended to provide an environment in which learners progress http://www.siue.edu/~jandris/HTMLDocuments/ANDRIS/logo.html

LOGO as a Programming Language for Educational Applications by Jim Andris The LOGO language was developed in 1967 by the Logo Group at MIT under the direction of Seymour Pappert, author of the internationally acclaimed book Mindstorms: Children, Computers, and Powerful Ideas . It was the first language specifically designed to enable children to learn by discovery. According to Billstein, Libeskind and Lott in Logo: Programming and Problem Solving , "Logo is intended to provide an environment in which learners progress through the developmental stages of learning by exploration." (p. 1) A Language for Integrated, Experimental Learning Studies in Cognitive Growth Bruner and others define three modes of representing knowledge: enactive, iconic, and symbolic. In enactive representation the significance of a stimulus is in the motor reaction it produces. Iconic representation is representing external objects with imaaes, either internal or external. Finally, symbolic representation is linguistic in nature. Each of these three modes of representation has its own characteristics. Children start out with primarily the enactive mode and progress through the dominance of the iconic mode to the modal Western adult form of symbolic representation. One of the two major capabilities which were designed into Logo is the so-called turtle graphics. A "turtle" composed of a triangle or a turtle symbol may be controlled by commands from the keyboard or from within a Logo program. For example, the command FORWARD 50 RIGHT 90 will cause the turtle to move forward 50 units and turn right 90 degrees. Complex programs for the turtle to follow are built up from a small number of primitives.

Logo Programming for OS/2 During our September meeting, Neil demonstrated StarLogo on OS/2. The StarLogo compiler actually runs on Java so is available for any platform with a Java Runtime Environment. The environment is a bit beastly on the resources to run. Neil's laptop with 128 Meg of RAM would occasionally freeze while the JRE garbage collector cleaned house. But once it was done, the program would start running again. Just keep that in mind if you want to give it a try. I have not yet had a chance to try it myself, but hope to give it a spin soon. When I do, I'll add a bit more detail to this page on setup, sample code and other assorted bits and bytes. If anyone else would like to try it out and give me some feedback, I'll add it to these pages.

Where Intelligent Technology Meets the Real World Home Contents Search News ... Contact PC AI Logo Programming Language Overview : Devised in the late 60s by Papert and his colleagues at MIT as an educational aid for children, Logo is a subset of LISP and can be used as a serious programming language. Indeed, Burke and Genise's (1987) undergraduate text exclusively uses Logo to explain fundamental principles of computer science, and Shafer's (1986) book on Macintosh AI programming is based on Logo. Logo is compact, making it an excellent vehicle for exploring AI on a PC. A version of Logo exists for virtually every major brand of desktop computer, with versions in most cases marketed by the computer manufacturer. Logo is best known for graphics; the user programs a cursor (called a "turtle") to draw figures on the screen. Graphics aside, Logo has a number of list manipulation functions (in a syntax that is more friendly than LISP's) that make it ideal for AI applications, and random number generating functions that make it suitable for simulations. Goldenberg and Feurzeig (1987) show how Logo can be used to explore computational linguistics, and Harvey's three volumes (1985, 1986, 1987) give a wide range of other applications and projects.

40. Professor Seymour Papert The logo programming language was created there, as were the first children s toys with builtin computation. The Logo Foundation was created to inform http://www.papert.org/

Papert misses "Big Ideas" of the good old days in AI. Papert inspires Maine's bold technology plan. Papert runs technology program for teen offenders. Seymour Papert Works by Papert People laughed at Seymour Papert in the sixties when he talked about children using computers as instruments for learning and for enhancing creativity. The idea of an inexpensive personal computer was then science fiction. But Papert was conducting serious research in his capacity as a professor at MIT. This research led to many firsts. It was in his laboratory that children first had the chance to use the computer to write and to make graphics. The Logo programming language was created there, as were the first children's toys with built-in computation. The Logo Foundation was created to inform people about Logo and to support them in their use of Logo-based software for learning and teaching. Today Papert is considered the world's foremost expert on how technology can provide new ways to learn. He has carried out educational projects on every continent, some of them in remote villages in developing countries. He is a participant in developing the most influential cutting-edge opportunities for children to participate in the digital world. He serves on the advisory boards for MaMaMedia Inc.
