  1. Turtle Graphics • Turtle graphics provide a simple way to draw pictures in a window. • The name suggests the way in which we can think about the drawing process. • Imagine a turtle walking around a screen with a pen tied to it’s tail. Commands tell it to move and to put the pen up and down (i.e. put it’s tail up and down.) • This is a primitive form of graphics but gives us a good introduction to graphic concepts.

  2. Example TurtleGraphics Program import TurtleGraphics.StandardPen; public class DrawSquare { public static void main(String [ ] args) { StandardPen pen = new StandardPen(); pen.up(); pen.move(25); pen.turn(90); pen.move(25); pen.down(); pen.turn(90); pen.move(50); pen.turn(90); pen.move(50); pen.turn(90); pen.move(50); pen.turn(90); pen.move(50); } }

  3. Example Program Explanation • Imports the TurtleGraphics package which allows us to draw basic shapes. • StandardPen is the class we will be using. import TurtleGraphics.StandardPen;

  4. Example Program Explanation pen.up(); pen.move(25); pen.turn(90); pen.move(25); pen.down(); • These statements lift the pen, move it to the square’s top left corner, and lower to set it to draw.

  5. Example Program Explanation pen.turn(90); pen.move(50); pen.turn(90); pen.move(50); pen.turn(90); pen.move(50); pen.turn(90); pen.move(50); • These statements draw a square with side length of 50 pixels. Each turn forms the 90° turn at the corners.

  7. Misc. Statements on Turtle Graphics • When the StandardPen is instantiated, it is always: • In the center of the graphics window • In the down position • Pointing North.
