_{Project 4 — Step 3 of 5}

⭐ Step 3 — Rectangles

➡️ Add a rectangle mouth to your face.

A rectangle is 4 lines drawn at right angles to each other. With turtle: forward, left 90, forward, left 90, and so on — a for loop is perfect.

✏️ What to type

Add a rect() helper function after dot(), and call it for the mouth:

def rect(x, y, width, height, color):
    pen.penup()
    pen.goto(x, y)
    pen.setheading(0)
    pen.pendown()
    pen.color(color)
    pen.begin_fill()
    for length in [width, height, width, height]:
        pen.forward(length)
        pen.left(90)
    pen.end_fill()

# Then add the mouth call at the bottom with the other shapes:
rect(-25, -30, 50, 15, 'red')

import turtle

screen = turtle.Screen()
screen.setup(400, 400)
screen.bgcolor('skyblue')

pen = turtle.Turtle()
pen.hideturtle()
pen.speed(0)

def circle(x, y, radius, color):
    pen.penup()
    pen.goto(x, y - radius)
    pen.pendown()
    pen.color(color)
    pen.begin_fill()
    pen.circle(radius)
    pen.end_fill()

def dot(x, y, size, color):
    pen.penup()
    pen.goto(x, y)
    pen.color(color)
    pen.dot(size)

# Add a rect(x, y, width, height, color) function here

circle(0, 0, 80, 'yellow')
dot(-30, 20, 15, 'black')
dot(30, 20, 15, 'black')
# Add a rect() call for a red mouth

screen.mainloop()

Tap ▶ Run. The face should now have a small red mouth. 👄
