Python Turtle Cheet Sheet!

turtle.up(): Sets the pen state to be up (not drawing).

turtle.down(): Sets the pen state to be down (drawing).

turtle.right(degrees): Turns the direction that the turtle is facing right (clockwise) by 
the amount indicated (in degrees).

turtle.left(degrees): Turns the direction that the turtle is facing left (counter 
clockwise) by the amount indicated (in degrees).

turtle.forward(distance): Moves the turtle forward (in the direction the turtle is 
facing) the distance indicated (in pixels). 
Draws a line if the pen is down, not if the pen is up.

turtle.backward(distance): Moves the turtle backward (in the direction opposite to 
how the turtle is facing) the distance indicated (in pixels). 
Draws a line if the pen is down, not if the pen is up.

turtle.setheading(angle): Sets the orientation of the turtle to angle. Here are some 
common directions in degrees: 0 (east), 90 (north), 180 (west), 270 (south).

turtle.goto(x,y): Moves the turtle to the specified coordinates, drawing a straight line to 
the destination (x,y) if the pen is down, and not drawing if the pen is up.  
 
turtle.color(r,g,b), turtle.color(s) / turtle.fillcolor(r,g,b)

turtle.fillcolor(s): Sets the color of the line / fill color that the pen will use until the 
color / fill color is changed. 

It Takes 

1. three arguments, each a floating-point number between 0.0—1.0, where the first 
indicates the amount of red, the second, the amount of green, and the third the amount of blue.

OR

2. a “color string” – the name of a Tk color (e.g., “black”, “red”, “blue”, …)
The default pen color and fill color is “black”.

turtle.circle(radius): Draws a circle of the indicated radius. The turtle draws the circle 
tangent to the direction the turtle is facing.

turtle.begin_fill(), turtle.end_fill(): To fill a figure, use turtle.begin_fill() 
before you start drawing the figure. Draw the figure. Then execute turtle.end_fill(). The figure 
drawn between the two fill commands will be filled with the present color setting.

turtle.hideturtle(), turtle.showturtle(): Sets the state to hide / show the 
turtle. 
When shown, you see it as a small arrowhead pointed in the direction of the heading.

turtle.xcor(), turtle.ycor(): Returns the x-coordinate / y-coordinate of the current 
pen position.

turtle.bye(): Close the turtle drawing window
