Review / Recap⌗

Turtle Commands You Already Know⌗

Command	Meaning (Simple)
`p.forward()`	Move forward
`p.backward()`	Move backward
`p.left()`	Turn left
`p.right()`	Turn right
`p.penup()`	Lift the pen
`p.pendown()`	Put the pen down
`p.pencolor()`	Change line color
`p.pensize()`	Change line thickness
`p.goto()`	Move to a coordinate
`p.setheading()`	Point the turtle in a direction
`p.circle()`	Draw a circle
`p.begin_fill()`	Start filling a shape
`p.end_fill()`	Finish filling a shape
`p.fillcolor()`	Set fill color
`p.dot()`	Draw a dot
`p.shape()`	Change turtle shape
`p.stamp()`	Stamp the turtle shape
`p.turtlesize()`	Resize the turtle icon
`p.speed()`	Change drawing speed
`wn.bgcolor()`	Change background color

Input, Variables, Identifiers, Print & Comments (Quick Table)⌗

Concept	Meaning (Simple)	Example
input()	Ask the user a question	`name = input("Enter name: ")`
int(input())	Ask for a whole number	`height = int(input("Enter height: "))`
variable	Stores a value	`size = 100`
identifier	Name of a variable	`wall_color`, `rocket_height`
print()	Show text or values on the screen	`print("Hello", name)`
comment (#)	Note for humans, ignored by Python	`# This draws the wall`

Objectives⌗

Review Python basics learned so far
Use input, variables, identifiers, print, and comments
Build a Tricolor Flag Generator
Submit your final drawing in Google Classroom

Your Task for Today⌗

You will not learn new commands today.
Instead, you will complete one required project using all Python basics learned so far.

Required Project — Tricolor Flag Generator⌗

Tricolor Flag

You must create a Tricolor Flag Generator using:

input()
variables
identifiers
print()
comments
turtle drawing methods

Your Task⌗

Ask the user for:

Single stripe width → use int
Flag height → use int
Left stripe color
Middle stripe color
Right stripe color

Then:

Print two status messages before drawing:

--- GENERATING FLAG ---
Drawing 3 stripes side-by-side...

Draw three stripes, each using:

t.fillcolor()
t.begin_fill()
t.end_fill()
t.forward()
t.left()

After drawing all stripes, print:
```
Flag generation complete!
```

Boilerplate Code⌗

Create a new Python file in VS Code named:

turtle_class11.py

import turtle as trtl

p = trtl.Turtle()
p.speed(0)

# --- ENTER YOUR CODE HERE ---
# (Write your Tricolor Flag Generator code here)



# --------------------------------------------------------------
# (Stop writing code above this line)

wn = trtl.Screen()
wn.mainloop()

Submission Instructions⌗

Submit your work in Google Classroom under:

Assignment 2 — Python Basic Commands Review Project⌗

Include:

A Google Doc
Your code pasted inside
A screenshot of your final flag
Turn it in before the deadline

Reminder⌗

This is your review assignment.
Use input, variables, identifiers, print, comments, and turtle methods together.

Have fun coding!
