Turtle Geometry: The Computer as a Medium for Exploring

Turtle Geometry introduces an innovative approach to learning mathematics through computer programming. Using the Logo turtle graphics system, readers explore geometric concepts by commanding a virtual turtle to draw shapes, patterns, and curves on screen.

• Format: Print book
• Covers geometry, mathematical reasoning, and introductory programming through hands-on exercises
• Uses the Logo programming language and turtle graphics as a learning tool
• Encourages exploration of angles, curves, polygons, and geometric transformations through code
• Suitable for students, educators, and self-learners interested in math and computer science
• Part of the MIT Press Classics series

This book bridges the gap between abstract mathematical ideas and tangible, interactive learning by letting readers write programs that produce visual geometric results.
