Add Turtle module to Game Development section.

What is this Python project?

Turtle graphics is a popular way for introducing programming to kids. It was part of the original Logo programming language developed by Wally Feurzig and Seymour Papert in 1966.

Imagine a robotic turtle starting at (0, 0) in the x-y plane. After an import turtle, give it the command turtle.forward(15), and it moves (on-screen!) 15 pixels in the direction it is facing, drawing a line as it moves. Give it the command turtle.right(25), and it rotates in-place 25 degrees clockwise.

By combining together these and similar commands, intricate shapes and pictures can easily be drawn.

What's the difference between this Python project and similar ones?

  • Simple to use.
  • Part of the standard library.
  • One of the oldest APIs (dating back to 1966)
  • Popular library in many different languages.
