angelotr be8b7f2ae8 The letters A, D, L, and P were adjusted so all the lines fit inside the 8x8 grid. The code for letter A had to be changed in order for the middle crossbar to be perfectly centered and the diagnols of D nearly fit within the square.
My last work session today was working on the typeface problems. At first I felt confused because I was trying to figure out what
my objective is. It looked intimidating but as I kept reading it the task became more visible as to what I need to do. Upon completing
the assignment I tried to design and implement the first four letters of the alphabet but I came across a few comlications. When designing
the letter A the middle crossbar was not being drawn in the correct spot, I sttruggled at first trying to figure out what to change
but then figured out I had to change one wording of code to get the letter A to display properly. I felt relieved that I was able
to solve my issue and after when trying to design the letter B I messed up my code somewhere to where my letter B turned out to be the letter P
so at the end I was fortunate that I was able to accidently create a different letter which I was happy to end up using. Looking, at the
list of command and looking up different commands of code online helped a lot when designing my chosen letters.

# typeface.py
# By Chris Proctor and _________
# Contains one function for each letter in the English alphabet.
# Each function should draw its letter at a scale of `unit`, and then
# return back to the same position and heading where it started.
# Note: The `sqrt` function from math may be helpful--if you want to
# move the turtle along the diagonal of a square with side length x,
# the turtle should move a distance of sqrt(x)
