SILShack Spring 2014

Thanks to Grant's awesome work on pull request #122, we now have sweet python consoles available to us- and not just on the console page. Check a runnable version of Zach's Zuperman code:

import turtle
wn = turtle.Screen()
wn.bgcolor('navy') #background color
zuperman = turtle.Turtle()
zuperman.color('red')
zuperman.speed(0)
i = 24
zuperman.pensize(i)     
zuperman.penup()
zuperman.fillcolor('gold')
zuperman.begin_fill()
zuperman.goto(0, -200)
zuperman.pendown()
zuperman.goto(-195, 75)
zuperman.goto(-150, 195)
zuperman.goto(150, 195)
zuperman.goto(195, 75)
zuperman.goto(0, -200)
zuperman.end_fill()
zuperman.penup()
zuperman.goto(-150, 192)
zuperman.pendown()
zuperman.color('black')
zuperman.fillcolor('red')
zuperman.begin_fill()
zuperman.pensize(i/4)
zuperman.goto(150, 192)
zuperman.goto(150, 170)
zuperman.goto(0, -20)
for i in range(90): #draw a curve
   zuperman.forward(1)
   zuperman.left(0.5)
#text comment
zuperman.right(45)
zuperman.forward(70)
zuperman.goto(70, -95)
zuperman.goto(-70,-95)
zuperman.goto(-140, 0)
zuperman.goto(0, 140)
zuperman.left(180)
for i in range(90):
   zuperman.forward(1)
   zuperman.left(0.5)
zuperman.right(45)
zuperman.goto(-150, 50)
zuperman.goto(-150, 192)
zuperman.end_fill()
zuperman.hideturtle()
wn.exitonclick()

Press Run to see the output of the code above

To include a console in your own posts, you'll need two 'include' statements:

{% include python %}

{% include endpython %}

It's as easy as that! Behind the scenes, those include statements are pulling in code that Grant wrote that loads everything we need for one of these consoles. Awesome!

Note that only one console per page will work for now.

Happy coding!
