## Introduction 🎨
Welcome to Spirograph Drawing! This Python script allows you to create vibrant and mesmerizing spirograph drawings using the Turtle module. Get ready to unleash your creativity with a few lines of code! 🌀🌈
## Prerequisites 🛠️
Before you dive into the world of spirographs, make sure you have Python installed on your machine. If not, you can download it [here](https://www.python.org/downloads/).
## Installation 🐢
No additional modules are required for this script. Just make sure you have Python installed.
## Running the Script ▶️
1. Open the script in your favorite Python environment.
2. Run the script. This will launch the Turtle graphics window.
## Understanding the Code 🤓
Let's break down the provided Python code for the Spirograph Drawing script:
```python
import turtle as t
import random
myrtle = t.Turtle()
t.colormode(255)
def random_color():
r = random.randint(0, 255)
g = random.randint(0, 255)
b = random.randint(0, 255)
color = (r, g, b)
return color
def draw_spirograph(size_of_gap):
for _ in range(int(360 / size_of_gap)):
myrtle.color(random_color())
myrtle.circle(100)
myrtle.setheading(myrtle.heading() + size_of_gap)
draw_spirograph(5)
```
### Code Explanation:
1. **Importing Libraries:**
```python
import turtle as t
import random
```
- `turtle` is a module in Python that provides a way to create simple graphics.
- `random` is a module that provides functions for generating random numbers.
2. **Creating a Turtle:**
```python
myrtle = t.Turtle()
t.colormode(255)
```
- `myrtle` is an instance of the `Turtle` class, which is used for drawing.
- `t.colormode(255)` sets the color mode to use RGB values ranging from 0 to 255.
3. **Generating Random Colors:**
```python
def random_color():
r = random.randint(0, 255)
g = random.randint(0, 255)
b = random.randint(0, 255)
color = (r, g, b)
return color
```
- The `random_color` function generates a random RGB color and returns it as a tuple.
4. **Drawing Spirograph:**
```python
def draw_spirograph(size_of_gap):
for _ in range(int(360 / size_of_gap)):
myrtle.color(random_color())
myrtle.circle(100)
myrtle.setheading(myrtle.heading() + size_of_gap)
```
- The `draw_spirograph` function uses a loop to draw circles in a spirograph pattern.
- `myrtle.color(random_color())` sets the turtle's color to a random color.
- `myrtle.circle(100)` draws a circle with a radius of 100 units.
- `myrtle.setheading(myrtle.heading() + size_of_gap)` changes the heading of the turtle, creating the spirograph effect.
5. **Executing the Drawing:**
```python
draw_spirograph(5)
```
- This line calls the `draw_spirograph` function with a `size_of_gap` of 5, determining the gap between each circle in the spirograph.
The script, when executed, will create a visually appealing spirograph drawing with randomized colors. Adjusting the parameters can lead to various spirograph patterns.
## Customizing Your Spirograph 🎨
Feel free to experiment with the script! Adjust the `size_of_gap` parameter in the `draw_spirograph` function to change the gap between each circle in the spirograph. You can also modify colors, circle radii, and other parameters to create various spirograph patterns.
