Here is my clicky turtle program - it creates fireworks wherever the user clicks on the screen:

Reflections: For this assignment, I started with the idea of creating fireworks wherever the user clicked on the screen, which required managing multiple turtles (i.e. 12) on the screen at the same time so that I could create the multiple lines needed for the fireworks explosions at (almost) the same time. I defined a couple of functions in the module, animations.py, and discovered that error messages mentioned a particular line of code and then I had to figure out if they were referring to the main program or the module.

To make the fireworks disappear, initially, I redrew the lines using the background color, but the user could still see a faint version of the firecracker after I did this, which I guess is called “zig zag artifact.” I then found turtlename.clear() which erased the lines and was actually simpler to program. I created functions to randomize the color and length of each firecracker spoke – this was good practice for writing syntax related to calling up functions. Initially, I kept trying turtlename.color(color), which didn’t work and had to remember that the function needs () after it so turtlename.color(color()) - syntax took a while to come up with and looked weird at first.
