i wrote this code
Gucchi:
Part One: Programming
Write a program to move the Turtle based on the user’s request. Display a menu with options for the user to choose. Use the following guidelines to write your program.
1. Create a menu that gives the user options for moving the Turtle. The menu should contain letters or numbers that align with movements such as forward, backward, and/or drawing a particular pattern.
2. Use at least one if-else or elif statement in this program. It should be used to move the Turtle based on the user's input.
3. A loop is optional but may be used to ask the user to select multiple choices.
4. Use one color other than black.
5. Write the pseudocode for this program. Be sure to include any needed input, calculations, and output.

SmokeyBrown:
The problem says that you can use if-else checks to allow the user to move the turtle. So, you'll want to include some way for the user to enter inputs into the program. Then, based on how those inputs match up with the controls, you can execute actions for the turtle
SmokeyBrown:
Based on how the program is set up, it looks like you'll want to listen for input as long as the user hasn't quit.
In other words, you'll start by taking input from the user. Then, while input is not equal to Q, you'll continue to take in the next input from the user.
You can define what the turtle does for all other valid input using if-else statements:
if input is equal to W, move the turtle forward a certain number of units
if input is equal to A, turn the turtle left by a certain number of degrees
if input is equal to D, turn the turtle right by a certain number of degrees
if input is equal to S, move the turtle backward a certain number of units
You can put all of that inside a while statement that checks for input not equal to Q. And of course, when input is not equal to Q the program can stop running, so close your input, maybe print a goodbye message or something
SmokeyBrown:
And you won't need it for pseudocode, but when it comes time to write the real code for the program, here's a short reference for Python Turtle commands if you need it: https://docs.python.org/3/library/turtle.html

i just an example of a while statement aswell
Gucchi:
its been so long since i have done this and just need a refresh
SmokeyBrown:
I'd be happy to give some examples.
The pseudocode for the structure I described might look something like this:
open input_source
input = input_source.get_user_input()
while(input NOT "Q") {
if (input == "W")
Turtle moves forward
if (input == "A")
Turtle turns left
if (input == "D")
Turtle turns right
if (input == "S")
Turtle moves backward
input = input_source.get_user_input()
}
SmokeyBrown:
Actually, for python, you don't need to open and close an input source like you would in java, so never mind about that.
The actual syntax could look something like
command = input("Please enter next command")
while (command != "Q") {
if (command == "W")
donald.forward(10)
....
....
}
etc.

for the "turtle moves forward" would the code be turtle.forward?

If you have a while loop, the next line, as well as every line inside the while loop should be indented
Since you’re starting an if loop after that, the code inside the if loop also needs to be indented

I realize now that I should have made the indentations more obvious; a single space is pretty hard to see, especially in this format--I'll try indenting with multiple spaces for clarity
Looks like you've gotten one of the commands, W -> forward to work. That's great. Before moving ahead with the other commands, I'd like to point out that your while loop needs a way to update its condition.
In this case, the condition of the while loop (command != "Q") checks the value of the variable "command", so we should have a line inside the while loop that updates command. Otherwise, we have a situation where the while loop could continue forever, since the condition never changes. To address this, we can simply copy the line that sets "command = input("Please enter a command)" to the end of the while-loop. That way, after one command is done, the user has a chance to enter their next command. In general, loops should always have a way to update their conditions.
About the other commands, I think the commands for turning left and right are
turtle.left(angle)
and
turtle.right(angle)
respectively, where "angle" is the number of degrees we want the turtle to turn. You could set this to whatever you see fit--90 for a right-angle turn, 45 for half of that, etc.
For your if-conditions, they could look something like
if(command == "A")
donald.left(90)
if(command == "D")
donald.right(90)
And then the command for backwards would be similar, checking if the command variable is equal to "S" and if so performing donald.back()
You can also add a number parameter to the .forward() and .back() functions to specify how many units the turtle should move, but it seems that is optional, and the turtle moves some default amount if not specified
SmokeyBrown:
As a side note, in this case using if-statements and else-if statements would be interchangeable, since all of the conditions are exclusive to another anyway. That is, the "command" variable can only be equal to at most one of the options, so you won't encounter a situation where more than one of the conditions will be fulfilled. In a case where you wanted to make sure only one of a set of conditions passes, you could use if-else. In this case it's not really necessary because at most one condition can be true anyway

That's interesting. Was the turtle going back to the original position because you ran the program again from the beginning?
My guess is that your while-loop was looping infinitely because there was no opportunity for the condition to change. In that case, the turtle would keep moving forward until you reset the program from the beginning, which also resets the turtles position.
Once you fix the while loop by adding that line at the end to change the condition, you'll be able to control the turtle's movements at each step, and each step should build upon the turtle's previous position instead of resetting. This will be more obvious once you implement the other commands as well.
Best of luck, and I'll look forward to checking in to see how it goes :)

It might have something to do with where you put the line to update the value of the "command" variable? I imagine you'd want that to be the last line of your while loop, so that right before the loop checks the condition again the user gets a chance to enter a new command.
If you like, I can take a look at the code you have so far

Based on the structure we described, this is what happens each time the while loop runs: First, the while condition checks if "command" is equal to "Q".

It looks like you managed to figure out quite a bit through your own efforts. That's great! And we're not done yet :)
First I should address the issue you mentioned here:
@gucchi wrote:

@gucchi wrote:

I'm pretty sure this is caused by the alignment of your code. Notice how all the if-statements after the first one are indented further (the first if-statement is indented 2 tabs, while the later ones are indented by 3 tabs)? Well, in Python, the code interprets this to mean that the further indented statements are *within* the less indented statements. In effect, this means that the program will only check for "A", "S", and "D" after it has confirmed that "command" is equal to "W", since the if-statements for "A", "S" and "D" are nested inside the if-statement for "W". This creates a situation where only the forward action can be performed because the other actions are unreachable.
To fix this, simply adjust the alignment on the if-statements so they are all equally aligned; that way, the if-statements are all inside the while-loop but not nested within other if-statements, in this case.
About the [command = input("Please enter a command")] statement, I think I could have been more explicit about where to add that. While your code does accomplish what you need it to by prompting for user input after every condition, you could achieve the same thing by including [command = input("Please enter a command")] only once, at the end of the while-loop body, outside of any if-conditions. After all, you want the program to prompt for user input no matter what, not only under certain conditions
In fact, the continuous looping you saw earlier here
@gucchi wrote:

was because the program was not hitting the [command = input("Please enter a command")] line; that statement was hidden inside a condition which wasn't being fulfilled, so there was no way to update the "command" value, and the loop would keep repeating the same behavior since the condition stayed the same.
It looks like you got around this issue by adding [command = input("Please enter a command")]. While I complement you for recognizing the issue and coming up with a workaround, it would probably be easier to simply place that statement once, at the end of the while-loop body, outside of any if-statements (again, alignment is important here). I'll demonstrate what I mean in the example below
If you want to use if-else statements, all you need to do is replace your "if" conditions with "else if"; this can apply to all of the ifs except for the first one. Starting from the first condition, the logic goes "if something is true, do this [if (<condition1>) <action1>]; and if that condition is not true and another condition is true, do something else [(else if (<condition2>) <action2>]; and if that condition is not true and another condition is true... etc.
I'll try rewriting the while-loop of your code with these adjustments so you can get a visual idea of how all this can be put together:
```
command = input("Enter W, A, S, D to move the turtle, or Q to quit")
while(command != "Q"):
if (command == "W"):
donald.forward(50)
elif (command == "A"):
donald.left(90)
donald.forward(50)
elif (command == "S"):
donald.back(50)
elif (command == "D"):
donald.right(90)
donald.forward(50)
command = input("Please enter a command")
```
Notice how the if-statements share the same alignment, so none of them are nested within each other; the [command = input("Please enter a command")] also shares the same alignment, because we want it to be inside the while-loop but not inside any if-statements.
I used this article to double-check my if-elif-else syntax. Feel free to use it as a reference for the logic and syntax of those statements, if you like:
