== What is Turtle Confusion ==
Turtle Confusion presents 40 shape challenges to the learner that must be completed using basic Logo-blocks. The challenges as based on Barry Newell's 1988 book, Turtle Confusion: Logo Puzzles and Riddles.
Turtle Confusion is a fork of [[Activities/TurtleArt|Turtle Blocks]] that presents [[Activities/TurtleArt#Challenges|40 shape challenges]] to be programmed by moving the Logo turtle.
Coming soon: the ability to import challenges from the Sugar Journal.
Additional features:
* You can save your results as (1) a Turtle Art program; (2) UCB Logo; or (3) as a PNG image
* You can overlay Cartesian and polar coordinate grids
* Additional blocks can be added through the Turtle Blocks plugin mechanism
