I already reached my 3 checkpoints but wanted to make my code better. I was stuck on how to add more functions instead of just hard coding everything. I figured out how to do this by breaking the code up into smaller parts based on what each portion of the code does.
Milestone 3:
-When creating the house I had to figure out where to put the door. I wanted the door to be close to the center of the house. I knew that the house was 100 units in width so I did math to figure out if I moved 40 units in and made a door that was 20 units wide, there would be 40 units on the other side between the door and the edge of the house. This means that the door would be in the center. I visualized this by drawing it on a separate paper.
-This project has made me really think about where the turtle is facing and what it is doing. A way I was able to visualize that is by actaally drawing what it will be doing on a separate piece of paper.
Milestone 2:
- Since my last commit I have changed the README.md file twice. I originally was going to try an animation but then I decided that I wanted to create a picture.
- Somewhere I got stuck was thinking about how I could create the person's hair. I was thinking about it and decided that it would be better to create a hat so that is what I did. I originally wasn't sure how to create the hat but then I thought about using loops. I knew I could run the rectangle function multiple times while still being able to change the size of the rectangles so that is what I did. I looped through 3 different rectangle sizes to give the idea that the person is wearing a hat.
I was stuck when trying to figure out how to tell the turtle where to make the person's legs. Math had to be done since my rectangle function starts at the bottom left of the rectangle. I had to start the turtle 150 spots lower from the torso so when it made the leg rectangle, it would stop at the torso, since the legs were 150 long. I figured this out by drawing the person on a piece of paper so I could visually see where all the shapes needed to go.
