Introduction
TurtleBlocks is block computer programming language to create designs for laser cutting or acutting plotter.
PictureBlocks is a twin project, “which facilitates the construction of complex geometric designs from simple primitive pictures by transforming (rotating, flipping) picturesand composing them (putting one picture above, beside, or over one another).”[1]
Both these environments aim “to introduce non programmers to computational thinking [5] and give them hands-on experience with techniques like procedurala bstraction, modularity, and divide/conquer/glue problem solving.” [1]
Notice: There exists a similar language called Turtle Blocks JavaScript that draws colorful art based on snap-together visual programming elements.
