I learned logo initially in middle school in the 70s. (Even got to demo it for the local art museum’s “festival of the future”)

But in high school I took another programming class and learned a lot of programing concepts with Mac logo. Recursion and drawing fractals and graphing equations.

While I appreciate the logo turtle moving syntax, it’s weird seeing it in python. Though I wonder if logo still exists, I’ll search for that.

Yeah I hear you about the Python syntax. When I was making my turtle graphics language for kids, SeaTurtle[0], I thought about just quitting when I found out about the Python turtle module. But then I figured out that a big part of the beauty of Logo for the littlest of kids was the dead simple syntax. Having even simpler syntax than Python is a win for Logos or Logo clones. It's really the only reason to start a kid on them instead of a "real" programming language.
