StarSqueak
Last updated at 4:48 pm UTC on 16 January 2006
StarSqueak consists of some morphs to do turtle graphics with several turtles at once.
See http://el.www.media.mit.edu/groups/el/Projects/starlogo/
Examples:
Put the following code in a Workspace and evaluate it.
StarSqueakAntColony new openInWorld
Open the menu of the morph and keep it up. Choose 'start' from the morph's menu. You see a simulation of an ant colony with ants reaching out for food.
StarSqueakForestFire new openInWorld
The turtles (class StarSqueakTurtle) are Morphs which have the turtle graphics methods like
- forward: aDistance
- turnRight: degrees
- penUp
- penDown
they have the interesting methods
and they can do some sensing like sniffing.
Each turtle has a unique id and it's own state.
With this set interesting simulations may be set up.
