Report

The turtle module provides turtle graphics primitives, in both object-oriented and procedure-oriented ways. Because it uses tkinter for the underlying graphics, it needs a version of Python installed with Tk support.

turtle.degrees()

This method is used to set angle measurement units to degrees. By default the angle measurement unit is "degrees".

Syntax: turtle.degrees(fullcircle=360.0)

Parameter:

fullcircle(optional): a number. Set angle measurement units, i.e. set number of 'degrees' for a full circle. Default value is 360 degrees.

Below is the implementation of the above method with an example :

Python3
# importing package import turtle  # set turtle speed turtle.speed(1)  # forward turtle by 100 turtle.forward(100)  # turn the turtle (degrees) turtle.left(90)  # print heading print(turtle.heading())  # move forward by 100 turtle.forward(100)  # set to radians turtle.radians()  # turn to left by 90 (radians) turtle.left(1.57079633)  # print heading print(turtle.heading())  # move forward by 100 turtle.forward(100)  # set to radians turtle.degrees()  # turn to left by 90 (degrees) turtle.left(90)  # print heading print(turtle.heading())
