CAN YOU DESIGN MULTICOLOURED STAR USING PYTHON??

PYTHON TURTLE IS AN AMAZING LIBRARY .

Introduction

turtle is Python’s pre-installed library that enables users to create small games, animations, etc., with easy-to-understand codes.

With minimal and easy-to-understand codes that create beautiful shapes, it is a great way for kids to start their coding journey

Get started with turtle

1. Import the module

turtle is a pre-installed library in Python; therefore, we don’t need to install it explicitly.

The turtle module and its methods can be used in a program once it is imported into your Python environment, which can be done as follows:

```  
import turtle 

```
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

2.Create a canvas

Since turtle will perform graphic actions, it requires a canvas or separate workspace area to act on our commands. The turtle canvas or screen can be initialized, as shown below:

```   
screen=turtle.Screen()

```
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

3. Create a turtle

We need a turtle to perform actions on the canvas. turtle object is instantiated by the creation of an object of the Turtle class defined in the turtle module.

The turtle object is created as follows:

``` 
t=turtle.Turtle() 
```
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

CODE AS FOLLOWS:

import turtle
col=['yellow','red','green','blue','white','orange']
t=turtle.Turtle()
screen=turtle.Screen()
screen.bgcolor('black')
t.speed(30)
for i in range(100):
    t.color(col[i%6])
    t.forward(i*4)
    t.left(150)
    t.width(1)

Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
