Turtle moving in N-dimensions !

[globalvestor]

Here is a great challenge for the team to get the Turtle moving in N-Dimensions.
Can it be done?
Thanks.

n==3 could be plot with rgl. but how to present the results for higher ns? ask the user for a proper projection matrix -> 2d/3d?

I am afraid I do not have the answers. It has always been the problem and
difficult to present visuals greater than 3D onto 2D.

Perhaps someone out there has already solved the problem and could assist
the team. The Turtle should be able to move in the N-Dimensions and perhaps
also be able to show a visual for a difference of 3D on 2D for example 6D
to 9D for a start.

I could envisage that Turtle Graphics could be applied as an alternative
approach to modelling the Universe down to the quantum level since nature
is fractal and is recursive.

Kind Regards,
Desmond

Anyway, thanks for this nice idea. I think that it's worth starting with the 3D case, and then we can see how to optimize the viewport w.r.t. user friendliness. But this is a material for a separate package - it cannot be grid graphics-based
