I entered "import turtle" instead of "from turtle import * ", but it looks as if it did not import the pendown command. Why is that?
import turtle def drawSquare(size=100): turtle.pendown turtle.forward(size) turtle.left(90) turtle.forward(size) turtle.left(90) turtle.forward(size) turtle.left(90) turtle.forward(size) turtle.left(90) drawSquare(50) input () Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/Hershel/PycharmProjects/Project 1/practicefornotturtle.py", line 14, in <module> drawSquare(50) File "/Users/Hershel/PycharmProjects/Project 1/practicefornotturtle.py", line 4, in drawSquare turtle.pendown AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'pendown' Process finished with exit code 1 Begin forwarded message: > From: Alan Gauld via Tutor <tutor@python.org> > Date: June 19, 2016 1:47:44 AM MST > To: tutor@python.org > Subject: Re: [Tutor] Fwd: Turtle > Reply-To: Alan Gauld <alan.ga...@yahoo.co.uk> > > On 19/06/16 04:46, Hershel Millman wrote: > >>> In pycharm, when I enter the following, it replies with the following error >>> message: >>> >>> from turtle import * >>> > > Change that to > > import turtle > > and it should work. > > > >>> def drawSquare(size=100): >>> turtle.pendown() >>> turtle.forward(size) >>> turtle.left(90) >>> turtle.forward(size) >>> turtle.left(90) >>> turtle.forward(size) >>> turtle.left(90) >>> turtle.forward(size) >>> turtle.left(90) >>> >>> drawSquare(50) >>> >>> input () > > > -- > Alan G > Author of the Learn to Program web site > http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ > http://www.amazon.com/author/alan_gauld > Follow my photo-blog on Flickr at: > http://www.flickr.com/photos/alangauldphotos > > > _______________________________________________ > Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org > To unsubscribe or change subscription options: > https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
