do in the context of the provided code snippet?
What does the line of code turtle.done()
do in the context of the provided code snippet?
The line turtle.done()
keeps the drawing window open until it's closed manually.
Why does the code mention that the program would 'crash' if the user inputs '3px' or 'five' for line thickness?
Why does the code mention that the program would 'crash' if the user inputs '3px' or 'five' for line thickness?
The program expects a numerical value for line thickness, and inputs like '3px' or 'five' are not valid integers. Therefore, the program wouldn't be able to interpret these inputs as numerical values.
