circle

turtle

function
  • circle(radius, extent=None, steps=None)
Draw a circle with the given radius. The center is radius units left of the turtle; extent, an angle, determines which part of the circle is drawn. If extent is not given, draw the entire circle. If extent is not a full circle, one endpoint of the arc is the current pen position. Draw the arc in counterclockwise direction if radius is positive, otherwise in clockwise direction. Finally, the turtle’s heading is changed by extent.
