Question of the Day

What if we want the separate the squares

with some space between them? What do
we need to know to this?

DRAFT & CONFIDENTIAL 4

Add penup(), pendown()

Add the code below between your 2 squares:

penup()
forward(100)
pendown()

What if we want to GoTo a Specific
Place on the Screen instead?

Change “forward (100)” to “goto (150,150)”

penup()
forward(100)
pendown()

penup()
goto(150,150)
pendown()
