3. Can you find any other fun Christmas code on the Internet?

4. Try using the Python Turtle to create a Christmas image HERE

import turtle

screen = turtle.Screen()

screen.setup(800,600)

circle = turtle.Turtle()

circle.shape('circle')

circle.color('red')

circle.speed('fastest')

circle.up()

square = turtle.Turtle()

square.shape('square')

square.color('green')

square.speed('fastest')

square.up()

circle.goto(0,280)

circle.stamp()

k = 0

for i in range(1, 17):

    y = 30*i

    for j in range(i-k):

        x = 30*j

        square.goto(x,-y+280)

        square.stamp()

        square.goto(-x,-y+280)

        square.stamp()

    if i % 4 == 0:

        x =  30*(j+1)

        circle.color('red')

        circle.goto(-x,-y+280)

        circle.stamp()

        circle.goto(x,-y+280)

        circle.stamp()        

        k += 2

    if i % 4 == 3:

        x =  30*(j+1)

        circle.color('yellow')

        circle.goto(-x,-y+280)

        circle.stamp()

        circle.goto(x,-y+280)

        circle.stamp() 

square.color('brown')

for i in range(17,20):

    y = 30*i

    for j in range(3):    

        x = 30*j

        square.goto(x,-y+280)
