kdang 43bb081040 I was able to draw a pattern of squares with a cool design.
Somewhere I got stuck was when I had to figure out how to turn around to draw more squares.
A strategy I used to get un-stuck was trial and error until I got the turtle to rotate in the right way.
Something I want to learn more about is how to do the same pattern but with different shapes.
I challenged myself in completing this project in under 100 lines of code, and I succeeded with the help of defining and iterations.
