Moving Objects using turtle

Examples of using turtle

First, we import the turtle module; then, we can make a window if we want to; else, a default window will be created, and then we can give commands to the turtle to draw on this window; the thing is simply the way turtle moves is the way it draws. 

Creating a window

import turtle
win=turtle.Screen()# creating a window to draw.
win.bgcolor("blue")
win.title("Hello Ninjas")
turtle.done()## this is important for the screen to be there.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the turtle library in Python?

Turtle is a pre-installed Python module that allows users to utilise a virtual canvas to make drawings and shapes. The turtle is both the name of the onscreen pen that you use to draw with and the library's name.

What is turtle coding?

Turtle graphics are vector graphics that use a relative cursor (the "turtle") on a Cartesian plane in computer graphics (x and y-axis). A significant component of the Logo programming language is turtle graphics.

What can turtle in Python do?

Turtles can draw complex shapes with the help of programmes that repeat simple movements. Combining these and related commands can readily draw Intricate shapes and graphics.

Why do we use turtle?

Turtle is a pre-installed Python module that allows users to draw drawings and shapes on a virtual canvas. The turtle is the name of the onscreen pen you use to sketch with.

Conclusion

So, in a nutshell, the turtle is a graphics-oriented library which helps us draw images with the help of repeated commands and can be handy when we are trying to replicate some patterns.
