Your Workspace
As you interact with Logo and give words mean ing Logo puts these new words in what we refer to as your workspace. If you want to see what you have in your work space, Logo provides several ways to do so. For example, you can print out the title lines of all the procedures you have written or you can print out their definitions. Printing Out Procedures p o t s prints out the title lines of each of the proce dures in the workspace. Type
POTS PrintOut Titles

Logo responds
TO S Q U A R E TO S Q U A R E S T A R

and so on. prints out the definitions of all the proce dures in the workspace. Type

Erasing From the Workspace You can erase procedures from your workspace. If you have not saved these procedures on a disk ette, you will have to type them in again. So, make sure you really want to erase. There are several Logo commands to erase your work. The most commonly used is e r a s e , whose short form is e r
