This tutorial and its translations will be published on ReadTheDocs.org. This tutorial is not meant to replace the official turtle.py documentation.

The "Prime Directives" of this tutorial are:

• This tutorial is written in simple English, understandable by children and non-native English speakers.
• This tutorial covers the turtle.py module, but not programming or Python.
• This is not a project-based tutorial, but instead a simple list of all the turtle functions with examples.
• The Python code in this tutorial should be kept simple. No recursion, classes, list comprehensions, or complicated data structures. Programs should be under 30 lines.
• This tutorial's code should work with Python 2 and Python 3.

As the Tortuga project translates the turtle.py module into other languages, this tutorial can be adapted to use those translated modules.
