FD # = Go forward that many
turtle steps.
RT # = Turns the turtle right using degrees.
Home = Sends the turtle to coordinates 0, 0.
Repeat # [
] Repeats what’s ever in the
bracket the number of times written.
PD = Turtle puts down its pen.
PU = Turtle picks up pen and no longer draws.
Clean = Clear all graphics the turtle has drawn.
Example, this code makes a square:
PD Repeat 4[FD 100
RT 90]
