Alright, now that we’ve made sure everything is set up correctly, let’s start some coding!
Type the code into your Project1.py file as shown below.
On line 1 we have some green text, beginning with a “#“.
This is called a comment. Comments are ignored by Python when running the code. So why do they exist?
Comments are used as notes for both yourself and other programmers to help remember/understand how code works. They are probably of the most useful programming tools, and one of the easiest!
On line 2 we have a keyword called import (keywords are important built-in words of a programming language, they usually have colors to help them stand out.).
“turtle” is a library, pre-existing code that we can pull and use in our own programs so that we do not have to write everything from scratch.
Since our program now knows what a turtle is, we will be able to control it with our code
