turtle-in-c

tortuga.h is a "header only" library that adds turtle graphics functions (LOGO type) to the C and C++ languages. It was developed to teach programming to teenagers transitioning from visual programming languages ​​(Scratch, mBlock) to text-based languages.

This library has no dependencies, it only needs to be linked through the linker to the gdi32 Windows library.

This library works perfectly with the MinGW compiler and was developed and tested on Bloodshed's DeV C++ and its derivatives (Embarcadero, CodeBlocks, Orwell, etc.)

You must configure the IDE to include the link to the gdi32 library, to do this in Dev C++ you must go to the Tools menu and next to Compiler Options and in the box that says Add these commands to the linker command line add this flag: ** -lgdi32 **

go to "Tools" menu next to "Compiler Options"

add this flag in the linker textbox : -lgdi32

Then all you need is to include the tortuga.h header file and start programming!!!!

#include "tortuga.h"

main(){
   
    forward(1000);
    rightTurn(90);
    
    forward(1000);
    rightTurn(90);
    
    forward(1000);
    rightTurn(90);
    
    forward(1000);
    rightTurn(90);
            	
    wait();
	
}

For example: the following program will draw a square 1000 steps in size per side on the screen

Functions can also be written in abbreviated form, for example forward() can be written as fw(). and rightTurn() in this other way rt().
