The author uses Logo's turtle graphics as a way of exploring the properties of geometric space. Exploring Logo Without a Computer [David D. Recently, I read again the book Turtle Geometry: The Computer as a Medium for Exploring Mathematics by Harold Abelson and Andrea diSessa. Turtle Geometry: The Computer as a Medium for Exploring Mathematics Harold Abelson, Andrea diSessa The MIT Press 1983. The goal of the project was to build on students' knowledge of turtle geometry (learnt, perhaps from Logo) and to use Python's turtle graphics to give a turtle the ability to navigate a maze.
