circle

circle()

Description

Draws a circle to the screen. A circle is a simple closed shape. It is the set of all points in a plane that are at a given distance from a given point, the center. This function is a special case of the ellipse() function, where the width and height of the ellipse are the same. Height and width of the ellipse correspond to the diameter of the circle. By default, the first two parameters set the location of the center of the circle, the third sets the diameter of the circle.

Examples

from proceso import Sketch


p5 = Sketch()
p5.describe("White circle with black outline in mid of gray canvas")

# Draw a circle at location (30, 30) with a diameter of 20.
p5.circle(30, 30, 20)

Syntax

circle(x, y, d)

Parameters

x: float x-coordinate of the center of the circle.

y: float y-coordinate of the center of the circle.

d: float Diameter of the circle.
