Hide Turtle in Python

To hide the turtle in Python, you can use the hideturtle() method.

The turtle graphics library in Python allows you to create drawings and graphics using a virtual turtle. The turtle starts by default as a visible arrow on the screen. However, there may be times when you want to hide the turtle to give a cleaner look to your graphics.

To hide the turtle in Python, you can use the hideturtle() method. Here’s how you can do it:

import turtle

# Create a turtle object
t = turtle.Turtle()

# Hide the turtle
t.hideturtle()

# Display the turtle graphics window
turtle.done()

In the code snippet above, we first import the turtle module and create a turtle object t. We then call the hideturtle() method on the turtle object to hide the turtle. Finally, we display the turtle graphics window using the turtle.done() method.

You can also show the turtle again by calling the showturtle() method:

t.showturtle()

By following these simple steps, you can easily hide and show the turtle in Python when using the turtle graphics library. Happy coding!
