Study Notes
Importing the Turtle Library
- To use turtle, you need to import it using the following code:
from turtle import *
import turtle
Creating a Turtle and Window
- You can create a window for drawing and a turtle using the following code:
wn = turtle.Screen()
wn.bgcolor("light green")
wn.title("Turtle")
skk = turtle.Turtle()
Moving the Turtle
- To move the turtle forward by a specified amount, use the following code:
skk.forward(100)
- This will move the turtle 100 pixels forward in the direction it is facing.
Completing the Program
- After drawing, end the program with the
done()
function:turtle.done()
- This keeps the window open until you close it manually.
Example Shapes
-
Square:
for i in range(4):
skk.forward(50)
skk.right(90)
-
Star:
star.right(75)
star.forward(100)
for i in range(4):
star.right(144)
star.forward(100)
-
Hexagon:
num_sides = 6
side_length = 70
angle = 360.0 / num_sides
for i in range(num_sides):
polygon.forward(side_length)
polygon.right(angle)
-
Parallelogram:
for i in range(2):
t.forward(100)
t.left(60)
t.forward(50)
t.left(120)
-
Circle:
pen.fillcolor("red")
pen.begin_fill()
pen.circle(100)
pen.end_fill()
Turtle Methods
Turtle()
: Creates a new turtle object.forward()
: Moves the turtle forward by a specified amount.backward()
: Moves the turtle backward by a specified amount.right()
: Turns the turtle clockwise by a specified angle.left()
: Turns the turtle counterclockwise by a specified angle.penup()
: Lifts the turtle's pen, so it doesn't draw when moving.pendown()
: Puts down the turtle's pen, so it draws when moving.up()
: Lifts the turtle's pen.down()
: Puts down the turtle's pen.color()
: Changes the color of the turtle's pen.fillcolor()
: Changes the fill color for drawing polygons.heading()
: Returns the current heading (angle) of the turtle.position()
: Returns the current position of the turtle (x, y coordinates).goto()
: Moves the turtle to a specified position (x, y coordinates).begin_fill()
: Marks the starting point of a filled polygon.end_fill()
: Closes the polygon and fills it with the current fill color.dot()
: Draws a dot at the current position.stamp()
: Leaves a turtle shape impression at the current location.shape()
: Changes the shape of the turtle. Options: 'arrow', 'classic', 'turtle', 'circle'.
Turtle Programming Roadmap
- 1. Import the turtle module:
import turtle
- 2. Create a turtle to control:
skk = turtle.Turtle()
- 3. Draw using turtle methods: Use methods like
forward()
,right()
,left()
, etc. - 4. Run turtle.done():
turtle.done()
Turtle Programs
-
Spiral Square Outside In and Inside Out:
- The program draws squares with increasing size, creating a spiral effect.
for i in range(4):
skk.fd(size)
skk.left(90)
size = size + 5
-
User Input Pattern:
- The user enters the number of sides of a shape.
- The program draws multiple shapes with random colors and positions.
- It uses functions like
input()
,random.random()
, andtime.sleep()
.
-
Spiral Helix Pattern:
- This program draws a spiral helix.
- It uses the
turtle.circle()
function to create circles with increasing size andturtle.left()
for changing the angle. for i in range(100):
turtle.circle(5*i)
turtle.circle(-5*i)
turtle.left(i)
