Its LOGO but BETTER.... A programming language over Turtle Graphics
[](https://choosealicense.com/licenses/mit/)
- A programming language made for kids to learn about programming and some turtle programming
- Will help them to create beautiful patterns and arts
- They can also learn about python
To install it first you need to clone this repository using git clone command,
Then make sure you had already installed Python 3.10.9 or above or any other python version which works .
Then install all the requirements by running
$ pip install requirements.txt
# pip must be installed first also with pythonThen you can use the following command to run the example project in file example_code.ty with Tortoys interpreter
$ py ./tortoys.py --f ./example_code.ty
# use / or \ in file according to your OS.Then you can see the example running...
Tortoys is a simple programming language designed for turtle graphics. It allows users to control a turtle on the screen using a set of commands.
The RIGHT command rotates the turtle to the right by a specified angle.
RIGHT 90
The LEFT command rotates the turtle to the left by a specified angle.
LEFT 45
The MOVE command moves the turtle forward by a specified distance.
MOVE 100
The COLOR command sets the color of the turtle.
COLOR "blue"
The BGCOLOR command sets the color of the background.
BGCOLOR "blue"
The MOVETO command moves the turtle to a specified position.
MOVETO 50 50
The SPEED command sets the speed of the turtle.
SPEED 2
The TITLE command sets the title of the turtle screen.
TITLE "My Turtle"
The CLEAR command clears the turtle screen.
CLEAR
The SETX command sets the x-coordinate of the turtle.
SETX 50
The SETY command sets the y-coordinate of the turtle.
SETY 30
The PRINT command prints a message to the console.
PRINT "Hello, Tortoys!"
The SET command is used to set variables.
SET A 10
SET B A+5
The CLOSE command closes the turtle screen.
CLOSE
The DONE command completes the turtle graphics program.
DONE
Comments in Tortoys start with a # symbol and are ignored by the interpreter.
# This is a comment
RIGHT 90 # This is also a comment
Variables in Tortoys are used to store values. They are defined using the SET command.
SET A 10
SET B A+5
Here's a simple example program that draws a square:
# Example: Draw a Square
MOVE 100
RIGHT 90
MOVE 100
RIGHT 90
MOVE 100
RIGHT 90
MOVE 100
This program moves the turtle forward by 100 units, then turns right 90 degrees and repeats the process three more times, creating a square.
Feel free to customize and expand upon these examples to create your own Turtle graphics programs using Tortoys!
Contributions are always welcome!
We want developers who are the future of next generation to transform this small project.
