                                                              Returns True once the drivetrain has finished its current
                         drive is done?
                                                              motion otherwise, it returns False.
                                                              Returns True when the drivetrain is in motion otherwise,
                         drive is moving?
                                                              it returns False.
                                                              Displays  the drivetrain's  current absolute  heading
                        drive heading in degrees
                                                              (ranging from 0 to 359.99°).

                        drive rotation in degrees             Displays the total rotation since the program began.

                      DRAWING BLOCKS

                      In VEXcode VR, drawing blocks are used to create and control shapes on the virtual playground.
                      By combining movement and control blocks, you can program the robot to draw lines, shapes and
                      patterns. These blocks allow for precise control over the robot’s position, enabling creative designs and
                      graphical representations.
                      The drawing blocks are given below:

                                      Blocks                                          Description
                                                              This block controls the pen's position, usually in relation
                        move pen  down                        to the robot's movement. The pen can be either up (not
                                                              drawing) or down (drawing).

                                                              This block sets the pen colour to a selected value, enabling
                        set pen to color black                the robot to draw in that colour. You can choose from
                                                              options like black, red, green and blue.

                                                              This block also sets the pen's colour, with added functionality
                        set pen color
                                                              to directly adjust the colour value.
                                                              This block adjusts the pen's width (thickness), allowing you
                        set pen to width  thin                to increase or decrease the thickness of the lines the robot
                                                              draws.

                                                              This block fills a region or shape that the robot has drawn
                        fill area with color
                                                              with a chosen colour.

                      DRAWING A RECTANGLE ON THE GRID MAP

                      In VEXcode VR, you can create various shapes by programming the robot to move forward, backward
                      and turn at specific angles. To draw a rectangle, follow these steps:

                        STEP - 1   Click on the SELECT PLAYGROUND button.
