Draw Dot Patterns Using Turtle in Python (original) (raw)

Last Updated : 15 Jul, 2025

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 :
