TLDR
In this article, a language similar to logo is used to draw geometric pictures using this language and programs are developed to draw geometrical pictures using it, which is similar to the one we use in this paper.
Abstract
The primary purpose of a programming language is to assist the programmer in the practice of her art. Each language is either designed for a class of problems or supports a different style of programming. In other words, a programming language turns the computer into a ‘virtual machine’ whose features and capabilities are unlimited. In this article, we illustrate these aspects through a language similar tologo. Programs are developed to draw geometric pictures using this language.
