Draw Dot Patterns Using Turtle in Python

Prerequisite: Turtle Programming Basics

Turtle is an inbuilt module in Python. It provides drawing using a screen (cardboard) and turtle (pen). To draw something on the screen, we need to move the turtle (pen). To move turtle, there are some functions i.e forward(), backward(), etc.

1) Draw Dot Square 

Following steps are used :

• Import turtle
• Make turtle
• Define a function to draw a square with dots
• Call that function
• Hide the turtle.

Below is the implementation :

Python3

# import package and making object
import turtle


pen = turtle.Turtle()

# method to draw square with dots
# space --> distance between dots
# x     --> side of square
def draw(space,x):
  for i in range(x):
    for j in range(x):

        # dot
        pen.dot()

        # distance for another dot
        pen.forward(space)
    pen.backward(space*x)

    # direction
    pen.right(90)
    pen.forward(space)
    pen.left(90)

# Main Section
pen.penup()
draw(10,8)

# hide the turtle
pen.hideturtle()

Output :

2) Draw Dot Rectangle 

Following steps are used :

• Import turtle
• Make turtle
• Define a function to draw a rectangle with dots
• Call that function
• Hide the turtle.

Below is the implementation :

Python3

# import package and making object
import turtle


pen = turtle.Turtle()

# method to draw rectangle with dots
# space --> distance between dots
# x     --> height of rectangle
# y     --> width of rectangle
def draw(space,x,y):
  for i in range(x):
    for j in range(y):

        # dot
        pen.dot()

        # distance for another dot
        pen.forward(space)
    pen.backward(space*y)

    # direction
    pen.right(90)
    pen.forward(space)
    pen.left(90)

# Main Section
pen.penup()
draw(10,5,12)

# hide the turtle
pen.hideturtle()

Output :

3) Draw Dot Diamond:

Following steps are used :

• Import turtle
• Make turtle
• Define a function to draw a diamond with dots
• Call that function
• Hide the turtle.

Below is the implementation :

Python3

# import package and making object
import turtle


pen = turtle.Turtle()

# method to draw diamond with dots
# space --> distance between dots
# x     --> side of diamond
def draw(space,x):
  for i in range(x):
    for j in range(x):

        # dot
        pen.dot()

        # distance for another dot
        pen.forward(space)
    pen.backward(space*x)

    # direction
    pen.right(90)
    pen.forward(space)
    pen.left(90)

# Main Section
pen.penup()

# direction to form diamond
pen.left(45)
draw(10,8)

# hide the turtle
pen.hideturtle()

Output :
