Lesson 7: Drawing Plane

This project allows the use of the arrow keys and other keys to control the forward direction, turning and color of the pen. It creates an environment where different types of drawings can be obtained by selective and combined use of the controls. It illustrates the use of simultaneous controls in computer drawing.
