The article mentions that Logo did not provide a very good experience to the author. I am glad to know that he still found another way back to programming and had a great time with Rust. In my life, Logo opened a whole new world for me. I began coding with IBM/LCSI PC Logo in my childhood days. The first line of code I ever wrote was: FD 100 That's the "hello, world" of turtle graphics in Logo. That simple line of code changed my world. I could make stuff happen in an otherwise mostly blank monochrome CRT display. Until then I had seen CRTs in televisions where I had very little control on what I see on the screen. But now, I had control. The turtle became my toy and I could make it draw anything on a 320 x 250 canvas. The next beautiful piece of code I came across in the same language was: REPEAT 360 [FD 1 RT 1] The code above draws an approximation of a circle by combining 360 short line segments. It showed me how control flow can be used elegantly to express complex ideas in a simple expression. And then I came across this: REPEAT 20 [REPEAT 180 [FD 1 RT 2] RT 18] The above code draws 20 overlapping circles. The output looks like this: https://susam.in/files/blog/dosbox-logo-1.png https://susam.in/files/blog/dosbox-logo-1.png. By the way, it is the same image that the author of this article has reused in his article. :-) At an impressionable age of 9, reading and writing code like this, and using simple arithmetic, geometry, logic, and code to manipulate a two-dimensional world had a lasting effect on me. Back in those days, I used to find joy in sharing some of my interesting Logo programs with my teachers and friends. I like to believe that my passion for software engineering as well as my love for writing code, sharing code, and open source development are a result of coming across these beautiful code examples early in my life.
