This question from someone who is not a math major and who is still a novice
logo user...
I would like to create a simple spiral with the turtle using a formula. I
figured out how to do this without using a formula:
repeat 180[fd .05 rt 1]
repeat 180[fd .1 rt 1]
repeat 180[fd .15 rt 1]
repeat 180[fd .2 rt 1]
repeat 180[fd .25 rt 1]
repeat 180[fd .3 rt 1]
repeat 180[fd .35 rt 1]
repeat 180[fd .4 rt 1]
repeat 180[fd .5 rt 1]
I did a bit of research on spirals on the web and found that there are many
varieties. I'm looking for a simple one that I can explain to 6th and 7th
grade HCL students and that they can experiment with.
How would I do this using a formula?
How about a spiral using a square?
Any suggestions very much appreciated.
