EXTENDING THE MODEL
Modify the model to show fixed point representation; that is, specify a given number of digits to the right of the decimal place.Allow the user to input a decimal number, and then display the corresponding digit pattern.
NETLOGO FEATURES

The stack-name was used to indicate the state of the turtle."set heading towardsxy-nowrap to-x to-y" was used to guide the remainder to the correct place in the stack at the bottom.

HomeApplets on this website were written by Teresa Carrigan in 2004, for use in computer science courses at Blackburn College, with the exception of the Fireworks applet. The applets made with NetLogo require Java 1.4.1 or higher to run. The applets made with NetBeans require Java 1.4.2 or higher to run. Applets might not run on Windows 95 or Mac OS 8 or 9. You may obtain the latest Java plugin from Sun's Java site.
