Looking for used Atari Logo cartridge

Recommended Posts

Still looking for it. I've been using an ATR I got from ftp pigwa, but I would like to transform one of my Atari s in a "Logo programming appliance"

Thanks guys,

Mauri

On a somewhat related topic... I got very intrigued when someone was describing a new online programming language from MIT to me that was great for teaching programming to kids... Started describing its syntax... Boy that sounds familiar....... And had an epiphany - it was LOGO reincarnated! ie:

move 10 steps
turn 15 degrees
point in direction 90
set pen color to ■

https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/editor/?tip_bar=home

 

Next time their kids visit, definitely have to boot up LOGO on the Atari :grin:

Not just an online programming language; it's been included in Raspian Linux for the RPi for a few years at least. :)

You probably won't find it much cheaper on eBay than what Best offers and most eBay offers contain the turtle graphics manual at best but not the complete reference.

 

Alternatively, put it on a flash cart/multicart.

 

Sorry, have one only, not for sale. I think it wasn't that popular in Europe.
