Turtle Graphics Update

It is that time of the year again – thanksgiving. So that of course means I need to update the version of Turtle Graphics that I posted a year ago to test out Oslo. Turtle Graphics was a Logo like programming language created in the early 1980's as a means of introducing novices and children to programming on the BBC Microcomputer. Turtle graphics helped introduce people to programming using a simple functional language that provided instant visual gratification allowing the user to move a triangular turtle across the screen using simple commands such as forward, backward, right turn and left turn.
