Spheres drawn in papert


Were you one of the kids who spent their days messing around with Logo, drawing whatever odd shapes came to mind?

You can now relive the past, for Thomas Edward Figg, or tef as he calls himself on Something Awful, has made a JavaScript-based Logo interpreter. Now you can watch the Koch snowflake, the Hilbert curve or whatever else your mind happens to think up unfold itself before your very eyes — without having to leave your browser window!

So I urge you, click on any of the examples I linked before — or if you’re extremely lazy, click here:

papert - logo in your browser

If you want example code to run, I can suggest checking out the Something Awful thread on papert by the developer himself.

What it does is simply to add the ability to fold and unfold quotes by clicking the “Sebbe posted:” header — automatically folding them as a default.
Edit: This has been changed, now it doesn’t fold as a default, but it is toggleable in the menu.

If this sounds like something for you, then let’s do it like I did in my last post:
