On second thought I suspect you have that much down and you fail to see how to branch of into the right direction at 1/n of the length and to the left at 1/k for k < n with different angles. On Nov 13, 2010, at 10:09 AM, Matthias Felleisen wrote: > > Here is a hint I posted some N years ago

Here is a hint I posted some N years ago for my freshmen: Recall the hint: "Think of the problem as drawing a straight line, givenits starting point and an angle in, say, radians." Graphically the situationlooks like this:Your given the starting point (x0,y0) the _length_ and the angle _a_ and you

I this in reference to a HtDP exercise, or a personal project? If the later you might be interested in https://github.com/noelwelsh/splatter/blob/master/demo.ss The function tree defines a context-free grammar for drawing ... well, guess. HTH, N. On Sat, Nov 13, 2010 at 3:00 AM, Ken Hegeland

I have a nearly working code, it draws the tree, but it is slightly off. I realize what is wrong that is causing the problem, for each recursive call I used a set angle. The tree draws all the left branches at the same angle and all right branches at the same angle. I end up with a picture of a
