LOGO
<language, education> A {Lisp}-like language for teaching
programming, noted for its "turtle graphics" used to draw
geometric shapes. LOGO was developed in 1966-1968 by a group
at Bolt, Beranek & Newman (now "{BBN Technologies}") headed
by Wally Fuerzeig <fuerzeig@bbn.com> (who still works there in
2003) and including Seymour Papert <seymour@media.mit.edu>.
There are Logo {interpreters} for {Macintosh}, {Unix}, {IBM
PC}, {X Window System}, and many PCs. Implmentations include
{Berkeley Logo}, {MswLogo}.
