Draw any polygon in Turtle - Python

Draw any polygon in Turtle - Python

To draw any polygon using the turtle module in Python, you'll first need to determine the internal angle of the polygon. The formula for the internal angle of a regular polygon (a polygon with all sides and angles equal) is:

Internal angle=n(n−2)×180​

where n is the number of sides of the polygon.

Here's a Python function that uses the turtle module to draw any regular polygon:

import turtle def draw_polygon(sides, length): """Draw a regular polygon with the given number of sides and side length.""" # Calculate internal angle angle = (sides - 2) * 180 / sides # Initialize turtle t = turtle.Turtle() t.speed(5) # Set drawing speed, 1 is slowest, 10 is fastest # Draw polygon for _ in range(sides): t.forward(length) t.left(180 - angle) turtle.done() # Example usage: draw_polygon(6, 100) # This will draw a hexagon with each side 100 units long 

You can modify the sides and length parameters to draw different polygons with different sizes.

Note: Ensure that the turtle graphics window is closed before re-running the program to avoid any issues.
