`turtle` — Turtle 图形 ¶

介绍 ¶

Turtle graphics is an implementation of the popular geometric drawing tools introduced in Logo , developed by Wally Feurzeig, Seymour Papert and Cynthia Solomon in 1967.

Get started ¶

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.

In Python, turtle graphics provides a representation of a physical “turtle” (a little robot with a pen) that draws on a sheet of paper on the floor.

It’s an effective and well-proven way for learners to encounter programming concepts and interaction with software, as it provides instant, visible feedback. It also provides convenient access to graphical output in general.

Turtle drawing was originally created as an educational tool, to be used by teachers in the classroom. For the programmer who needs to produce some graphical output it can be a way to do that without the overhead of introducing more complex or external libraries into their work.

教程 ¶

New users should start here. In this tutorial we’ll explore some of the basics of turtle drawing.

Starting a turtle environment ¶

In a Python shell, import all the objects of the turtle 模块：

from turtle import *

If you run into a No module named '_tkinter' error, you’ll have to install the Tk interface package on your system.

Basic drawing ¶

Send the turtle forward 100 steps:

forward(100)

You should see (most likely, in a new window on your display) a line drawn by the turtle, heading East. Change the direction of the turtle, so that it turns 120 degrees left (anti-clockwise):

left(120)

Let’s continue by drawing a triangle:

forward(100)
left(120)
forward(100)

Notice how the turtle, represented by an arrow, points in different directions as you steer it.

Experiment with those commands, and also with backward() and right() .

Pen control ¶

Try changing the color - for example, color('blue') - and width of the line - for example, width(3) - and then drawing again.

You can also move the turtle around without drawing, by lifting up the pen: up() before moving. To start drawing again, use down() .

The turtle’s position ¶

Send your turtle back to its starting-point (useful if it has disappeared off-screen):

home()

The home position is at the center of the turtle’s screen. If you ever need to know them, get the turtle’s x-y coordinates with:

pos()

Home is at (0, 0) .

And after a while, it will probably help to clear the window so we can start anew:

clearscreen()

Making algorithmic patterns ¶

Using loops, it’s possible to build up geometric patterns:

for steps in range(100):
    for c in ('blue', 'red', 'green'):
        color(c)
        forward(steps)
        right(30)

- which of course, are limited only by the imagination!

Let’s draw the star shape at the top of this page. We want red lines, filled in with yellow:

color('red')
fillcolor('yellow')

Just as up() and down() determine whether lines will be drawn, filling can be turned on and off:

begin_fill()

Next we’ll create a loop:

while True:
    forward(200)
    left(170)
    if abs(pos()) < 1:
        break

abs(pos()) < 1 is a good way to know when the turtle is back at its home position.

Finally, complete the filling:

end_fill()

(Note that filling only actually takes place when you give the end_fill() command.)

How to… ¶

This section covers some typical turtle use-cases and approaches.

Get started as quickly as possible ¶

One of the joys of turtle graphics is the immediate, visual feedback that’s available from simple commands - it’s an excellent way to introduce children to programming ideas, with a minimum of overhead (not just children, of course).

The turtle module makes this possible by exposing all its basic functionality as functions, available with from turtle import * 。 turtle graphics tutorial covers this approach.

It’s worth noting that many of the turtle commands also have even more terse equivalents, such as fd() for forward() . These are especially useful when working with learners for whom typing is not a skill.

You’ll need to have the Tk interface package installed on your system for turtle graphics to work. Be warned that this is not always straightforward, so check this in advance if you’re planning to use turtle graphics with a learner.

使用 `turtle` module namespace ¶

使用 from turtle import * is convenient - but be warned that it imports a rather large collection of objects, and if you’re doing anything but turtle graphics you run the risk of a name conflict (this becomes even more an issue if you’re using turtle graphics in a script where other modules might be imported).

The solution is to use import turtle - fd() becomes turtle.fd() , width() becomes turtle.width() and so on. (If typing “turtle” over and over again becomes tedious, use for example import turtle as t instead.)

Use turtle graphics in a script ¶

It’s recommended to use the turtle module namespace as described immediately above, for example:

import turtle as t
from random import random
for i in range(100):
    steps = int(random() * 100)
    angle = int(random() * 360)
    t.right(angle)
    t.fd(steps)

Another step is also required though - as soon as the script ends, Python will also close the turtle’s window. Add:

t.mainloop()

to the end of the script. The script will now wait to be dismissed and will not exit until it is terminated, for example by closing the turtle graphics window.

Use object-oriented turtle graphics ¶

另请参阅

Explanation of the object-oriented interface

Other than for very basic introductory purposes, or for trying things out as quickly as possible, it’s more usual and much more powerful to use the object-oriented approach to turtle graphics. For example, this allows multiple turtles on screen at once.

In this approach, the various turtle commands are methods of objects (mostly of Turtle objects). You can use the object-oriented approach in the shell, but it would be more typical in a Python script.

The example above then becomes:

from turtle import Turtle
from random import random
t = Turtle()
for i in range(100):
    steps = int(random() * 100)
    angle = int(random() * 360)
    t.right(angle)
    t.fd(steps)
t.screen.mainloop()

Note the last line. t.screen is an instance of the Screen that a Turtle instance exists on; it’s created automatically along with the turtle.

The turtle’s screen can be customised, for example:

t.screen.title('Object-oriented turtle demo')
t.screen.bgcolor("orange")

Methods of RawTurtle/Turtle and corresponding functions ¶

Most of the examples in this section refer to a Turtle instance called turtle .

Turtle motion ¶

turtle. forward ( distance ) ¶

turtle. fd ( distance ) ¶

参数 :: distance – a number (integer or float)

Move the turtle forward by the specified distance , in the direction the turtle is headed.

>>> turtle.position()
(0.00,0.00)
>>> turtle.forward(25)
>>> turtle.position()
(25.00,0.00)
>>> turtle.forward(-75)
>>> turtle.position()
(-50.00,0.00)

turtle. back ( distance ) ¶

turtle. bk ( distance ) ¶

turtle. backward ( distance ) ¶

参数 :: distance – a number

Move the turtle backward by distance , opposite to the direction the turtle is headed. Do not change the turtle’s heading.

>>> turtle.position()
(0.00,0.00)
>>> turtle.backward(30)
>>> turtle.position()
(-30.00,0.00)

turtle. right ( angle ) ¶

turtle. rt ( angle ) ¶

参数 :: angle – a number (integer or float)

Turn turtle right by angle units. (Units are by default degrees, but can be set via the degrees() and radians() functions.) Angle orientation depends on the turtle mode, see mode() .

>>> turtle.heading()
22.0
>>> turtle.right(45)
>>> turtle.heading()
337.0

turtle. left ( angle ) ¶

turtle. lt ( angle ) ¶

参数 :: angle – a number (integer or float)

Turn turtle left by angle units. (Units are by default degrees, but can be set via the degrees() and radians() functions.) Angle orientation depends on the turtle mode, see mode() .

>>> turtle.heading()
22.0
>>> turtle.left(45)
>>> turtle.heading()
67.0

turtle. goto ( x , y = None ) ¶

turtle. setpos ( x , y = None ) ¶

turtle. setposition ( x , y = None ) ¶

参数 :

x – a number or a pair/vector of numbers
y – a number or None

若 y is None , x must be a pair of coordinates or a Vec2D (e.g. as returned by pos() ).

Move turtle to an absolute position. If the pen is down, draw line. Do not change the turtle’s orientation.

>>> tp = turtle.pos()
>>> tp
(0.00,0.00)
>>> turtle.setpos(60,30)
>>> turtle.pos()
(60.00,30.00)
>>> turtle.setpos((20,80))
>>> turtle.pos()
(20.00,80.00)
>>> turtle.setpos(tp)
>>> turtle.pos()
(0.00,0.00)

turtle. teleport ( x , y = None , * , fill_gap = False ) ¶

参数 :

x – a number or None
y – a number or None
fill_gap – a boolean

Move turtle to an absolute position. Unlike goto(x, y), a line will not be drawn. The turtle’s orientation does not change. If currently filling, the polygon(s) teleported from will be filled after leaving, and filling will begin again after teleporting. This can be disabled with fill_gap=True, which makes the imaginary line traveled during teleporting act as a fill barrier like in goto(x, y).

>>> tp = turtle.pos()
>>> tp
(0.00,0.00)
>>> turtle.teleport(60)
>>> turtle.pos()
(60.00,0.00)
>>> turtle.teleport(y=10)
>>> turtle.pos()
(60.00,10.00)
>>> turtle.teleport(20, 30)
>>> turtle.pos()
(20.00,30.00)

Set the orientation of the turtle to to_angle . Here are some common directions in degrees:

标准模式	logo mode
0 - east	0 - north
90 - north	90 - east
180 - west	180 - south
270 - south	270 - west

>>> turtle.setheading(90)
>>> turtle.heading()
90.0

turtle. home ( ) ¶

Move turtle to the origin – coordinates (0,0) – and set its heading to its start-orientation (which depends on the mode, see mode() ).

>>> turtle.heading()
90.0
>>> turtle.position()
(0.00,-10.00)
>>> turtle.home()
>>> turtle.position()
(0.00,0.00)
>>> turtle.heading()
0.0

turtle. circle ( radius , extent = None , steps = None ) ¶

参数 :

radius – a number
extent – a number (or None )
steps – an integer (or None )

Draw a circle with given radius . The center is radius units left of the turtle; extent – an angle – determines which part of the circle is drawn. If extent is not given, draw the entire circle. If extent is not a full circle, one endpoint of the arc is the current pen position. Draw the arc in counterclockwise direction if radius is positive, otherwise in clockwise direction. Finally the direction of the turtle is changed by the amount of extent .

As the circle is approximated by an inscribed regular polygon, steps determines the number of steps to use. If not given, it will be calculated automatically. May be used to draw regular polygons.

>>> turtle.home()
>>> turtle.position()
(0.00,0.00)
>>> turtle.heading()
0.0
>>> turtle.circle(50)
>>> turtle.position()
(-0.00,0.00)
>>> turtle.heading()
0.0
>>> turtle.circle(120, 180)  # draw a semicircle
>>> turtle.position()
(0.00,240.00)
>>> turtle.heading()
180.0

turtle. dot ( size = None , * color ) ¶

参数 :

size – an integer >= 1 (if given)
color – a colorstring or a numeric color tuple

Draw a circular dot with diameter size ，使用 color 。若 size is not given, the maximum of pensize+4 and 2*pensize is used.

>>> turtle.home()
>>> turtle.dot()
>>> turtle.fd(50); turtle.dot(20, "blue"); turtle.fd(50)
>>> turtle.position()
(100.00,-0.00)
>>> turtle.heading()
0.0

turtle. stamp ( ) ¶

Stamp a copy of the turtle shape onto the canvas at the current turtle position. Return a stamp_id for that stamp, which can be used to delete it by calling clearstamp(stamp_id) .

>>> turtle.color("blue")
>>> stamp_id = turtle.stamp()
>>> turtle.fd(50)

turtle. clearstamp ( stampid ) ¶

参数 :: stampid – an integer, must be return value of previous stamp() call

Delete stamp with given stampid .

>>> turtle.position()
(150.00,-0.00)
>>> turtle.color("blue")
>>> astamp = turtle.stamp()
>>> turtle.fd(50)
>>> turtle.position()
(200.00,-0.00)
>>> turtle.clearstamp(astamp)
>>> turtle.position()
(200.00,-0.00)

turtle. clearstamps ( n = None ) ¶

参数 :: n – an integer (or None )

Delete all or first/last n of turtle’s stamps. If n is None , delete all stamps, if n > 0 delete first n stamps, else if n < 0 delete last n stamps.

>>> for i in range(8):
...     unused_stamp_id = turtle.stamp()
...     turtle.fd(30)
>>> turtle.clearstamps(2)
>>> turtle.clearstamps(-2)
>>> turtle.clearstamps()

turtle. undo ( ) ¶

Undo (repeatedly) the last turtle action(s). Number of available undo actions is determined by the size of the undobuffer.

>>> for i in range(4):
...     turtle.fd(50); turtle.lt(80)
...
>>> for i in range(8):
...     turtle.undo()

turtle. speed ( speed = None ) ¶

参数 :: speed – an integer in the range 0..10 or a speedstring (see below)

Set the turtle’s speed to an integer value in the range 0..10. If no argument is given, return current speed.

If input is a number greater than 10 or smaller than 0.5, speed is set to 0. Speedstrings are mapped to speedvalues as follows:

“fastest”: 0
“fast”: 10
“normal”: 6
“slow”: 3
“slowest”: 1

Speeds from 1 to 10 enforce increasingly faster animation of line drawing and turtle turning.

Attention: speed = 0 means that no animation takes place. forward/back makes turtle jump and likewise left/right make the turtle turn instantly.

>>> turtle.speed()
3
>>> turtle.speed('normal')
>>> turtle.speed()
6
>>> turtle.speed(9)
>>> turtle.speed()
9

Tell Turtle’s state ¶

(440.00,-0.00)

turtle. towards ( x , y = None ) ¶

参数 :

x – a number or a pair/vector of numbers or a turtle instance
y – a number if x is a number, else None

Return the angle between the line from turtle position to position specified by (x,y), the vector or the other turtle. This depends on the turtle’s start orientation which depends on the mode - “standard”/”world” or “logo”.

Set angle measurement units, i.e. set number of “degrees” for a full circle. Default value is 360 degrees.

>>> turtle.home()
>>> turtle.left(90)
>>> turtle.heading()
90.0
Change angle measurement unit to grad (also known as gon,
grade, or gradian and equals 1/100-th of the right angle.)
>>> turtle.degrees(400.0)
>>> turtle.heading()
100.0
>>> turtle.degrees(360)
>>> turtle.heading()
90.0

turtle. up ( ) ¶: Pull the pen up – no drawing when moving.

turtle. pensize ( width = None ) ¶

turtle. width ( width = None ) ¶

参数 :: width – a positive number

Set the line thickness to width or return it. If resizemode is set to “auto” and turtleshape is a polygon, that polygon is drawn with the same line thickness. If no argument is given, the current pensize is returned.

>>> turtle.pensize()
1
>>> turtle.pensize(10)   # from here on lines of width 10 are drawn

turtle. pen ( pen = None , ** pendict ) ¶

参数 :

pen – a dictionary with some or all of the below listed keys
pendict – one or more keyword-arguments with the below listed keys as keywords

Return or set the pen’s attributes in a “pen-dictionary” with the following key/value pairs:

“shown”: True/False
“pendown”: True/False
“pencolor”: color-string or color-tuple

“pensize”: positive number
“speed”: number in range 0..10
“resizemode”: “auto” or “user” or “noresize”
“stretchfactor”: (positive number, positive number)
“outline”: positive number
“tilt”: number

This dictionary can be used as argument for a subsequent call to pen() to restore the former pen-state. Moreover one or more of these attributes can be provided as keyword-arguments. This can be used to set several pen attributes in one statement.

>>> turtle.pen(fillcolor="black", pencolor="red", pensize=10)
>>> sorted(turtle.pen().items())
[('fillcolor', 'black'), ('outline', 1), ('pencolor', 'red'),
 ('pendown', True), ('pensize', 10), ('resizemode', 'noresize'),
 ('shearfactor', 0.0), ('shown', True), ('speed', 9),
 ('stretchfactor', (1.0, 1.0)), ('tilt', 0.0)]
>>> penstate=turtle.pen()
>>> turtle.color("yellow", "")
>>> turtle.penup()
>>> sorted(turtle.pen().items())[:3]
[('fillcolor', ''), ('outline', 1), ('pencolor', 'yellow')]
>>> turtle.pen(penstate, fillcolor="green")
>>> sorted(turtle.pen().items())[:3]
[('fillcolor', 'green'), ('outline', 1), ('pencolor', 'red')]

Color control ¶

turtle. pencolor ( * args ) ¶

Return or set the pencolor.

Four input formats are allowed:

pencolor(): Return the current pencolor as color specification string or as a tuple (see example). May be used as input to another color/pencolor/fillcolor call.

>>> turtle.fillcolor()
(255.0, 255.0, 255.0)

turtle. color ( * args ) ¶

('red', 'green')
>>> color("#285078", "#a0c8f0")
>>> color()
((40.0, 80.0, 120.0), (160.0, 200.0, 240.0))

Filling ¶

turtle. filling ( ) ¶

Return fillstate ( True if filling, False else).

>>> turtle.begin_fill()
>>> if turtle.filling():
...    turtle.pensize(5)
... else:
...    turtle.pensize(3)

turtle. begin_fill ( ) ¶: To be called just before drawing a shape to be filled.

turtle. end_fill ( ) ¶

Fill the shape drawn after the last call to begin_fill() .

Whether or not overlap regions for self-intersecting polygons or multiple shapes are filled depends on the operating system graphics, type of overlap, and number of overlaps. For example, the Turtle star above may be either all yellow or have some white regions.

>>> turtle.color("black", "red")
>>> turtle.begin_fill()
>>> turtle.circle(80)

More drawing control ¶

turtle. reset ( ) ¶

Delete the turtle’s drawings from the screen, re-center the turtle and set variables to the default values.

>>> turtle.position()
(0.00,-22.00)
>>> turtle.heading()
100.0
>>> turtle.reset()
>>> turtle.position()
(0.00,0.00)
>>> turtle.heading()
0.0

turtle. clear ( ) ¶: Delete the turtle’s drawings from the screen. Do not move turtle. State and position of the turtle as well as drawings of other turtles are not affected.

turtle. write ( arg , move = False , align = 'left' , font = ('Arial', 8, 'normal') ) ¶

参数 :

arg – object to be written to the TurtleScreen
move – True/False
align – one of the strings “left”, “center” or right”
font – a triple (fontname, fontsize, fonttype)

Write text - the string representation of arg - at the current turtle position according to align (“left”, “center” or “right”) and with the given font. If move is true, the pen is moved to the bottom-right corner of the text. By default, move is False .

>>> turtle.write("Home = ", True, align="center")
>>> turtle.write((0,0), True)

Turtle 状态 ¶

Visibility ¶

turtle. hideturtle ( ) ¶

turtle. ht ( ) ¶

Make the turtle invisible. It’s a good idea to do this while you’re in the middle of doing some complex drawing, because hiding the turtle speeds up the drawing observably.

>>> turtle.hideturtle()

turtle. showturtle ( ) ¶

turtle. st ( ) ¶

Make the turtle visible.

>>> turtle.showturtle()

turtle. isvisible ( ) ¶

返回 True if the Turtle is shown, False if it’s hidden.

>>> turtle.hideturtle()
>>> turtle.isvisible()
False
>>> turtle.showturtle()
>>> turtle.isvisible()
True

外观 ¶

turtle. shape ( 名称 = None ) ¶

参数 :: 名称 – a string which is a valid shapename

Set turtle shape to shape with given name or, if name is not given, return name of current shape. Shape with name must exist in the TurtleScreen’s shape dictionary. Initially there are the following polygon shapes: “arrow”, “turtle”, “circle”, “square”, “triangle”, “classic”. To learn about how to deal with shapes see Screen method register_shape() .

>>> turtle.shape()
'classic'
>>> turtle.shape("turtle")
>>> turtle.shape()
'turtle'

turtle. resizemode ( rmode = None ) ¶

参数 :: rmode – one of the strings “auto”, “user”, “noresize”

Set resizemode to one of the values: “auto”, “user”, “noresize”. If rmode is not given, return current resizemode. Different resizemodes have the following effects:

“auto”: adapts the appearance of the turtle corresponding to the value of pensize.
“user”: adapts the appearance of the turtle according to the values of stretchfactor and outlinewidth (outline), which are set by shapesize() .
“noresize”: no adaption of the turtle’s appearance takes place.

resizemode("user") is called by shapesize() when used with arguments.

>>> turtle.resizemode()
'noresize'
>>> turtle.resizemode("auto")
>>> turtle.resizemode()
'auto'

turtle. shapesize ( stretch_wid = None , stretch_len = None , outline = None ) ¶

turtle. turtlesize ( stretch_wid = None , stretch_len = None , outline = None ) ¶

参数 :

stretch_wid – positive number
stretch_len – positive number
outline – positive number

Return or set the pen’s attributes x/y-stretchfactors and/or outline. Set resizemode to “user”. If and only if resizemode is set to “user”, the turtle will be displayed stretched according to its stretchfactors: stretch_wid is stretchfactor perpendicular to its orientation, stretch_len is stretchfactor in direction of its orientation, outline determines the width of the shape’s outline.

>>> turtle.shapesize()
(1.0, 1.0, 1)
>>> turtle.resizemode("user")
>>> turtle.shapesize(5, 5, 12)
>>> turtle.shapesize()
(5, 5, 12)
>>> turtle.shapesize(outline=8)
>>> turtle.shapesize()
(5, 5, 8)

turtle. shearfactor ( shear = None ) ¶

参数 :: shear – number (optional)

Set or return the current shearfactor. Shear the turtleshape according to the given shearfactor shear, which is the tangent of the shear angle. Do not change the turtle’s heading (direction of movement). If shear is not given: return the current shearfactor, i. e. the tangent of the shear angle, by which lines parallel to the heading of the turtle are sheared.

>>> turtle.shape("circle")
>>> turtle.shapesize(5,2)
>>> turtle.shearfactor(0.5)
>>> turtle.shearfactor()
0.5

turtle. tilt ( angle ) ¶

参数 :: angle – a number

Rotate the turtleshape by angle from its current tilt-angle, but do not change the turtle’s heading (direction of movement).

>>> turtle.reset()
>>> turtle.shape("circle")
>>> turtle.shapesize(5,2)
>>> turtle.tilt(30)
>>> turtle.fd(50)
>>> turtle.tilt(30)
>>> turtle.fd(50)

turtle. tiltangle ( angle = None ) ¶

参数 :: angle – a number (optional)

Set or return the current tilt-angle. If angle is given, rotate the turtleshape to point in the direction specified by angle, regardless of its current tilt-angle. Do not change the turtle’s heading (direction of movement). If angle is not given: return the current tilt-angle, i. e. the angle between the orientation of the turtleshape and the heading of the turtle (its direction of movement).

>>> turtle.reset()
>>> turtle.shape("circle")
>>> turtle.shapesize(5,2)
>>> turtle.tilt(45)
>>> turtle.tiltangle()
45.0

turtle. shapetransform ( t11 = None , t12 = None , t21 = None , t22 = None ) ¶

参数 :

t11 – a number (optional)
t12 – a number (optional)
t21 – a number (optional)
t12 – a number (optional)

Set or return the current transformation matrix of the turtle shape.

If none of the matrix elements are given, return the transformation matrix as a tuple of 4 elements. Otherwise set the given elements and transform the turtleshape according to the matrix consisting of first row t11, t12 and second row t21, t22. The determinant t11 * t22 - t12 * t21 must not be zero, otherwise an error is raised. Modify stretchfactor, shearfactor and tiltangle according to the given matrix.

>>> turtle = Turtle()
>>> turtle.shape("square")
>>> turtle.shapesize(4,2)
>>> turtle.shearfactor(-0.5)
>>> turtle.shapetransform()
(4.0, -1.0, -0.0, 2.0)

turtle. get_shapepoly ( ) ¶

Return the current shape polygon as tuple of coordinate pairs. This can be used to define a new shape or components of a compound shape.

>>> turtle.shape("square")
>>> turtle.shapetransform(4, -1, 0, 2)
>>> turtle.get_shapepoly()
((50, -20), (30, 20), (-50, 20), (-30, -20))

使用事件 ¶

turtle. onclick ( fun , btn = 1 , add = None )

参数 :

fun – a function with two arguments which will be called with the coordinates of the clicked point on the canvas
btn – number of the mouse-button, defaults to 1 (left mouse button)
add – True or False – if True , a new binding will be added, otherwise it will replace a former binding

绑定 fun to mouse-click events on this turtle. If fun is None , existing bindings are removed. Example for the anonymous turtle, i.e. the procedural way:

>>> def turn(x, y):
...     left(180)
...
>>> onclick(turn)  # Now clicking into the turtle will turn it.
>>> onclick(None)  # event-binding will be removed

turtle. onrelease ( fun , btn = 1 , add = None ) ¶

参数 :

fun – a function with two arguments which will be called with the coordinates of the clicked point on the canvas
btn – number of the mouse-button, defaults to 1 (left mouse button)
add – True or False – if True , a new binding will be added, otherwise it will replace a former binding

绑定 fun to mouse-button-release events on this turtle. If fun is None , existing bindings are removed.

>>> class MyTurtle(Turtle):
...     def glow(self,x,y):
...         self.fillcolor("red")
...     def unglow(self,x,y):
...         self.fillcolor("")
...
>>> turtle = MyTurtle()
>>> turtle.onclick(turtle.glow)     # clicking on turtle turns fillcolor red,
>>> turtle.onrelease(turtle.unglow) # releasing turns it to transparent.

turtle. ondrag ( fun , btn = 1 , add = None ) ¶

参数 :

fun – a function with two arguments which will be called with the coordinates of the clicked point on the canvas
btn – number of the mouse-button, defaults to 1 (left mouse button)
add – True or False – if True , a new binding will be added, otherwise it will replace a former binding

绑定 fun to mouse-move events on this turtle. If fun is None , existing bindings are removed.

Remark: Every sequence of mouse-move-events on a turtle is preceded by a mouse-click event on that turtle.

>>> turtle.ondrag(turtle.goto)

Subsequently, clicking and dragging the Turtle will move it across the screen thereby producing handdrawings (if pen is down).

Special Turtle methods ¶

turtle. begin_poly ( ) ¶: Start recording the vertices of a polygon. Current turtle position is first vertex of polygon.

turtle. end_poly ( ) ¶

turtle. get_poly ( ) ¶

turtle. clone ( ) ¶

Create and return a clone of the turtle with same position, heading and turtle properties.

>>> mick = Turtle()
>>> joe = mick.clone()

turtle. getturtle ( ) ¶

turtle. getpen ( ) ¶

Return the Turtle object itself. Only reasonable use: as a function to return the “anonymous turtle”:

>>> pet = getturtle()
>>> pet.fd(50)
>>> pet
<turtle.Turtle object at 0x...>

turtle. getscreen ( ) ¶

返回 TurtleScreen object the turtle is drawing on. TurtleScreen methods can then be called for that object.

>>> ts = turtle.getscreen()
>>> ts
<turtle._Screen object at 0x...>
>>> ts.bgcolor("pink")

turtle. setundobuffer ( size ) ¶

参数 :: size – an integer or None

Set or disable undobuffer. If size is an integer, an empty undobuffer of given size is installed. size gives the maximum number of turtle actions that can be undone by the undo() method/function. If size is None , the undobuffer is disabled.

>>> turtle.setundobuffer(42)

turtle. undobufferentries ( ) ¶

Return number of entries in the undobuffer.

>>> while undobufferentries():
...     undo()

Compound shapes ¶

To use compound turtle shapes, which consist of several polygons of different color, you must use the helper class Shape explicitly as described below:

Create an empty Shape object of type “compound”.

Add as many components to this object as desired, using the addcomponent() 方法。

例如：

>>> s = Shape("compound")
>>> poly1 = ((0,0),(10,-5),(0,10),(-10,-5))
>>> s.addcomponent(poly1, "red", "blue")
>>> poly2 = ((0,0),(10,-5),(-10,-5))
>>> s.addcomponent(poly2, "blue", "red")

Now add the Shape to the Screen’s shapelist and use it:

>>> register_shape("myshape", s)
>>> shape("myshape")

注意

The Shape class is used internally by the register_shape() method in different ways. The application programmer has to deal with the Shape class only when using compound shapes like shown above!

Methods of TurtleScreen/Screen and corresponding functions ¶

Most of the examples in this section refer to a TurtleScreen instance called screen .

窗口控件 ¶

turtle. bgcolor ( * args ) ¶

参数 :: args – a color string or three numbers in the range 0..colormode or a 3-tuple of such numbers

Set or return background color of the TurtleScreen.

'nopic'
>>> screen.bgpic("landscape.gif")
>>> screen.bgpic()
"landscape.gif"

turtle. clear ( ): 注意

This TurtleScreen method is available as a global function only under the name clearscreen . The global function clear is a different one derived from the Turtle method clear .

turtle. clearscreen ( ) ¶: Delete all drawings and all turtles from the TurtleScreen. Reset the now empty TurtleScreen to its initial state: white background, no background image, no event bindings and tracing on.

turtle. reset ( ): 注意

This TurtleScreen method is available as a global function only under the name resetscreen . The global function reset is another one derived from the Turtle method reset .

turtle. resetscreen ( ) ¶: Reset all Turtles on the Screen to their initial state.

turtle. screensize ( canvwidth = None , canvheight = None , bg = None ) ¶

canvwidth – positive integer, new width of canvas in pixels
canvheight – positive integer, new height of canvas in pixels
bg – colorstring or color-tuple, new background color

If no arguments are given, return current (canvaswidth, canvasheight). Else resize the canvas the turtles are drawing on. Do not alter the drawing window. To observe hidden parts of the canvas, use the scrollbars. With this method, one can make visible those parts of a drawing which were outside the canvas before.

>>> screen.screensize()
(400, 300)
>>> screen.screensize(2000,1500)

Set up user-defined coordinate system and switch to mode “world” if necessary. This performs a screen.reset() . If mode “world” is already active, all drawings are redrawn according to the new coordinates.

ATTENTION : in user-defined coordinate systems angles may appear distorted.

>>> screen.reset()
>>> screen.setworldcoordinates(-50,-7.5,50,7.5)
>>> for _ in range(72):
...     left(10)

Turn turtle animation on/off and set delay for update drawings. If n is given, only each n-th regular screen update is really performed. (Can be used to accelerate the drawing of complex graphics.) When called without arguments, returns the currently stored value of n. Second argument sets delay value (see delay() ).

>>> screen.tracer(8, 25)
>>> dist = 2
>>> for i in range(200):
...     fd(dist)
...     rt(90)
...     dist += 2

There are three different ways to call this function:

name is the name of a gif-file and shape is None : Install the corresponding image shape.
```
>>> screen.register_shape("turtle.gif")
```
注意

Image shapes do not rotate when turning the turtle, so they do not display the heading of the turtle!
name is an arbitrary string and shape is a tuple of pairs of coordinates: Install the corresponding polygon shape.
```
>>> screen.register_shape("triangle", ((5,-3), (0,5), (-5,-3)))
```

class turtle. RawPen ( canvas ) ¶

参数 :: canvas – a tkinter.Canvas ， ScrolledCanvas 或 TurtleScreen

Create a turtle. The turtle has all methods described above as “methods of Turtle/RawTurtle”.

class turtle. Turtle ¶: Subclass of RawTurtle, has the same interface but draws on a default Screen object created automatically when needed for the first time.

class turtle. TurtleScreen ( cv ) ¶

参数 :: cv – a tkinter.Canvas

Provides screen oriented methods like bgcolor() etc. that are described above.

class turtle. Screen ¶: Subclass of TurtleScreen, with four methods added .

class turtle. ScrolledCanvas ( master ) ¶

参数 :: master – some Tkinter widget to contain the ScrolledCanvas, i.e. a Tkinter-canvas with scrollbars added

Used by class Screen, which thus automatically provides a ScrolledCanvas as playground for the turtles.

class turtle. 形状 ( type_ , data ) ¶

参数 :: type_ – one of the strings “polygon”, “image”, “compound”

Data structure modeling shapes. The pair (type_, data) must follow this specification:

type_	data
“polygon”	a polygon-tuple, i.e. a tuple of pairs of coordinates
“image”	an image (in this form only used internally!)
“compound”	`None` (a compound shape has to be constructed using the `addcomponent()` method)

addcomponent ( poly , fill , outline = None ) ¶

参数 :

poly – a polygon, i.e. a tuple of pairs of numbers
fill – a color the poly will be filled with
outline – a color for the poly’s outline (if given)

范例：

>>> poly = ((0,0),(10,-5),(0,10),(-10,-5))
>>> s = Shape("compound")
>>> s.addcomponent(poly, "red", "blue")
>>> # ... add more components and then use register_shape()

见 Compound shapes .

class turtle. Vec2D ( x , y ) ¶

A two-dimensional vector class, used as a helper class for implementing turtle graphics. May be useful for turtle graphics programs too. Derived from tuple, so a vector is a tuple!

Provides (for a , b vectors, k number):

a + b vector addition
a - b vector subtraction
a * b inner product
k * a and a * k multiplication with scalar
abs(a) absolute value of a
a.rotate(angle) 旋转

解释 ¶

A turtle object draws on a screen object, and there a number of key classes in the turtle object-oriented interface that can be used to create them and relate them to each other.

A Turtle instance will automatically create a Screen instance if one is not already present.

Turtle 是子类化的 RawTurtle , which doesn’t automatically create a drawing surface - a canvas will need to be provided or created for it. The canvas 可以是 tkinter.Canvas , ScrolledCanvas or TurtleScreen .

TurtleScreen is the basic drawing surface for a turtle. Screen 是子类化的 TurtleScreen , and includes some additional methods for managing its appearance (including size and title) and behaviour. TurtleScreen ’s constructor needs a tkinter.Canvas 或 ScrolledCanvas 作为自变量。

The functional interface for turtle graphics uses the various methods of Turtle and TurtleScreen / Screen . Behind the scenes, a screen object is automatically created whenever a function derived from a Screen method is called. Similarly, a turtle object is automatically created whenever any of the functions derived from a Turtle method is called.

To use multiple turtles on a screen, the object-oriented interface must be used.

Help and configuration ¶

How to use help ¶

The public methods of the Screen and Turtle classes are documented extensively via docstrings. So these can be used as online-help via the Python help facilities:

When using IDLE, tooltips show the signatures and first lines of the docstrings of typed in function-/method calls.

调用 help() on methods or functions displays the docstrings:

>>> help(Screen.bgcolor)
Help on method bgcolor in module turtle:
bgcolor(self, *args) unbound turtle.Screen method
    Set or return backgroundcolor of the TurtleScreen.
    Arguments (if given): a color string or three numbers
    in the range 0..colormode or a 3-tuple of such numbers.
    >>> screen.bgcolor("orange")
    >>> screen.bgcolor()
    "orange"
    >>> screen.bgcolor(0.5,0,0.5)
    >>> screen.bgcolor()
    "#800080"
>>> help(Turtle.penup)
Help on method penup in module turtle:
penup(self) unbound turtle.Turtle method
    Pull the pen up -- no drawing when moving.
    Aliases: penup | pu | up
    No argument
    >>> turtle.penup()

The docstrings of the functions which are derived from methods have a modified form:

>>> help(bgcolor)
Help on function bgcolor in module turtle:
bgcolor(*args)
    Set or return backgroundcolor of the TurtleScreen.
    Arguments (if given): a color string or three numbers
    in the range 0..colormode or a 3-tuple of such numbers.
    Example::
      >>> bgcolor("orange")
      >>> bgcolor()
      "orange"

Help on function penup in module turtle:
penup()
    Pull the pen up -- no drawing when moving.
    Aliases: penup | pu | up
    No argument
    Example:
    >>> penup()

These modified docstrings are created automatically together with the function definitions that are derived from the methods at import time.

Translation of docstrings into different languages ¶

There is a utility to create a dictionary the keys of which are the method names and the values of which are the docstrings of the public methods of the classes Screen and Turtle.

turtle. write_docstringdict ( filename = 'turtle_docstringdict' ) ¶

参数 :: filename – a string, used as filename

Create and write docstring-dictionary to a Python script with the given filename. This function has to be called explicitly (it is not used by the turtle graphics classes). The docstring dictionary will be written to the Python script filename.py . It is intended to serve as a template for translation of the docstrings into different languages.

If you (or your students) want to use turtle with online help in your native language, you have to translate the docstrings and save the resulting file as e.g. turtle_docstringdict_german.py .

If you have an appropriate entry in your turtle.cfg file this dictionary will be read in at import time and will replace the original English docstrings.

At the time of this writing there are docstring dictionaries in German and in Italian. (Requests please to glingl @ aon . at )。

How to configure Screen and Turtles ¶

The built-in default configuration mimics the appearance and behaviour of the old turtle module in order to retain best possible compatibility with it.

If you want to use a different configuration which better reflects the features of this module or which better fits to your needs, e.g. for use in a classroom, you can prepare a configuration file turtle.cfg which will be read at import time and modify the configuration according to its settings.

The built in configuration would correspond to the following turtle.cfg :

width = 0.5
height = 0.75
leftright = None
topbottom = None
canvwidth = 400
canvheight = 300
mode = standard
colormode = 1.0
delay = 10
undobuffersize = 1000
shape = classic
pencolor = black
fillcolor = black
resizemode = noresize
visible = True
language = english
exampleturtle = turtle
examplescreen = screen
title = Python Turtle Graphics
using_IDLE = False

Short explanation of selected entries:

The first four lines correspond to the arguments of the Screen.setup 方法。
Line 5 and 6 correspond to the arguments of the method Screen.screensize .
shape can be any of the built-in shapes, e.g: arrow, turtle, etc. For more info try help(shape) .
If you want to use no fill color (i.e. make the turtle transparent), you have to write fillcolor = "" (but all nonempty strings must not have quotes in the cfg file).
If you want to reflect the turtle its state, you have to use resizemode = auto .
If you set e.g. language = italian the docstringdict turtle_docstringdict_italian.py will be loaded at import time (if present on the import path, e.g. in the same directory as turtle ).
The entries exampleturtle and examplescreen define the names of these objects as they occur in the docstrings. The transformation of method-docstrings to function-docstrings will delete these names from the docstrings.
using_IDLE : Set this to True if you regularly work with IDLE and its -n switch (“no subprocess”). This will prevent exitonclick() to enter the mainloop.

There can be a turtle.cfg file in the directory where turtle is stored and an additional one in the current working directory. The latter will override the settings of the first one.

The Lib/turtledemo directory contains a turtle.cfg file. You can study it as an example and see its effects when running the demos (preferably not from within the demo-viewer).

`turtledemo` — Demo scripts ¶

The turtledemo package includes a set of demo scripts. These scripts can be run and viewed using the supplied demo viewer as follows:

python -m turtledemo

Alternatively, you can run the demo scripts individually. For example,

python -m turtledemo.bytedesign

The turtledemo package directory contains:

A demo viewer __main__.py which can be used to view the sourcecode of the scripts and run them at the same time.
Multiple scripts demonstrating different features of the turtle module. Examples can be accessed via the Examples menu. They can also be run standalone.
A turtle.cfg file which serves as an example of how to write and use such files.

The demo scripts are:

名称	描述	特征
bytedesign	complex classical turtle graphics pattern	`tracer()` , delay, `update()`
chaos	graphs Verhulst dynamics, shows that computer’s computations can generate results sometimes against the common sense expectations	world coordinates
clock	analog clock showing time of your computer	turtles as clock’s hands, ontimer
colormixer	experiment with r, g, b	`ondrag()`
forest	3 breadth-first trees	randomization
fractalcurves	Hilbert & Koch curves	recursion
lindenmayer	ethnomathematics (indian kolams)	L-System
minimal_hanoi	Towers of Hanoi	Rectangular Turtles as Hanoi discs (shape, shapesize)
nim	play the classical nim game with three heaps of sticks against the computer.	turtles as nimsticks, event driven (mouse, keyboard)
paint	super minimalistic drawing program	`onclick()`
peace	elementary	turtle: appearance and animation
penrose	aperiodic tiling with kites and darts	`stamp()`
planet_and_moon	simulation of gravitational system	compound shapes, `Vec2D`
rosette	a pattern from the wikipedia article on turtle graphics	`clone()` , `undo()`
round_dance	dancing turtles rotating pairwise in opposite direction	compound shapes, clone shapesize, tilt, get_shapepoly, update
sorting_animate	visual demonstration of different sorting methods	simple alignment, randomization
tree	a (graphical) breadth first tree (using generators)	`clone()`
two_canvases	simple design	turtles on two canvases
yinyang	another elementary example	`circle()`

Have fun!

从 Python 2.6 起的变化 ¶

方法 Turtle.tracer , Turtle.window_width and Turtle.window_height have been eliminated. Methods with these names and functionality are now available only as methods of Screen . The functions derived from these remain available. (In fact already in Python 2.6 these methods were merely duplications of the corresponding TurtleScreen / Screen methods.)
方法 Turtle.fill() has been eliminated. The behaviour of begin_fill() and end_fill() have changed slightly: now every filling process must be completed with an end_fill() 调用。
A method Turtle.filling has been added. It returns a boolean value: True if a filling process is under way, False otherwise. This behaviour corresponds to a fill() call without arguments in Python 2.6.

从 Python 3.0 起的变化 ¶

The Turtle 方法 shearfactor() , shapetransform() and get_shapepoly() have been added. Thus the full range of regular linear transforms is now available for transforming turtle shapes. tiltangle() has been enhanced in functionality: it now can be used to get or set the tilt angle.
The Screen 方法 onkeypress() has been added as a complement to onkey() . As the latter binds actions to the key release event, an alias: onkeyrelease() was also added for it.
方法 Screen.mainloop has been added, so there is no longer a need to use the standalone mainloop() function when working with Screen and Turtle 对象。
Two input methods have been added: Screen.textinput and Screen.numinput . These pop up input dialogs and return strings and numbers respectively.
Two example scripts tdemo_nim.py and tdemo_round_dance.py have been added to the Lib/turtledemo 目录。
