What is Star Logo? A program which allows people to easily create (virtual) systems that contain many (simple) objects. Star Logo also allows people to easily observe how these systems change over time. Star Logo allows for both (limited) central control over object behaviour and decentralized rules carried out simultaneously by many objects.
