Explores the close relationship between pattern formation and traditional geometry using the LOGO programing language with the specific example of joining squares, corner to corner, to form a closed ring. Includes the LOGO programs utilized, as well as color illustrations of the interesting and eye-catching patterns generated. (JJK)

Describes a process of mathematical investigation involving generalized Fibonacci sequences. Provides the derivation using expressions, BASIC programs, and numerical verification. (YP)

Activities which may be used to investigate a variety of woven patterns are presented. Pattern predicting and analysis of different patterns are discussed. A Basic computer program for the weaving code is given. (CW)

This paper describes a computer simulation of Buffon's needle problem. The problem considers the probability that a needle will cross a line when the needle is thrown in a random way onto the parallel lines a certain distance apart. The paper provides the algorithm and computer program. (YP)

Uses LOGO to enhance the applicability of curve stitching in the mathematics curriculum. Presents the formulas and computer programs for the construction of parabolas, concentric circles, and epicycloids. Diagrams of constructed figures are provided. (MDH)

Discussed are solutions to the problem "What is the expected number of rolls for the total first to exceed 6?" Several algebraic solutions are presented. A computer program which may be used to simulate this problem is included. (CW)

Describes how three dimensional LOGO was used in a workshop session for secondary pupils and mathematics teachers. Provides many commands and output drawings. (YP)
