Removing a Block

                  To remove a block in AI Connect, follow the given steps:

                   Step 1   Click and hold on the block from script area that you want
                           to remove.

                   Step 2   Drag  it  towards  the  dustbin  icon  on  the  bottom  right
                           corner of the script area and drop it.
                                                     OR

                   Step 1   Drag the set of blocks back to the block palette and drop them.

                  What is Turtle?

                  A turtle is a point-sized cursor that we can move around using python programming language.
                  It is used to make drawings in AI Connect. It can also be modified in different ways to bring
                  multiple effects thereby making a graphical design.

                  It follows a written code and draws wherever it moves.
                  l   A  turtle  can  design  by  moving  backward  or  forward  with

                    number of steps to draw thereby making a shape.


                  l   A turtle can turn or move sideways by providing angles.


                  l   A turtle can be lifted up while moving so it does not draw for
                    some distance to create gaps in the drawing.


                  l   A turtle  can  change  colour  to  draw  any  multicoloured
                    graphic design.

                  Creating a Turtle

                  In order to create turtle, we need a variable. So, the first thing we will do is to open up a
                  new activity and create a new variable. To create a new variable, follow the given steps:
                   Step 1   Click  on  Create  variable                    block  from  the  Variables  category  and

                           name your variable anything (Let us name it—T).

                   Step 2   Drag out set T to                 block from the variable category.


                   Step 3   Go to draw then Turtles                    block category and drag out the create new


                           turtle                  block to the script area.


                   Step 4   Attach it to the set T                    block in the script area. From here on, the

                           turtle is created and more turtle blocks can be used to control it.
