You are having problems with "variables" . length needs to be :length if =
it
is a variable . note the colon as the first letter of the word . that =
means
that it is really some number that can be changed . I removed the "?" =
there
is no questions as to what they are, they are stated when you run the
program such as "side 100 5" . the 100 is :length and 5 is :level .

=20

Hope this helps . haven't done this type of programs for a couple of =
years
as they closed out computer labs and I am now a kindergarten teacher . =
don't
quite get this far with my kids in the year!

When I run Wendy's following program:=20
to koch_snowflake=20
seth -90=20
repeat 3 [rt 120 side length level]=20
end=20

to side :length? :level?=20
if :level? =3D 0 [fd :length? stop]=20
side :length? / 3 :level? - 1 lt 60=20
side :length? / 3 :level? - 1 rt 120=20
side :length? / 3 :level? - 1 lt 60=20
side :length? / 3 :level? - 1=20
end=20

The message is ... I don't know how to length in koch_snowflake=20
Her demo on mathcats is perfect.  This is fun. Thanks for the help.
