turtle.forward() method in PythonTurtle (original) (raw)

Last Updated : 16 Jul, 2020

The turtle module provides turtle graphics primitives, in both object-oriented and procedure-oriented ways. Because it uses Tkinter for the underlying graphics, it needs a version of Python installed with Tk support.

turtle.forward()

The turtle.forward() method is used to move the turtle forward by the value of the argument that it takes. It gives a line on moving to another position or direction.

turtle.forward(distance)

The argument it takes is distance { a number (integer or float) }. So, it moves the turtle forward by the specified distance, in the direction the turtle is headed.

Below is the implementation of above method with some examples :

Example 1:

Python3 `

importing packages

import turtle

move turtle forward with

distance = 100

turtle.forward(100)

`

Output :

Example 2:

Python3 `

importing package

import turtle

move the turtle forward by 50

turtle.forward(50)

change the direction

turtle.right(90)

move the turtle forward by 50 again

turtle.forward(50)

`

Output :
