Koch Snowflake

The Koch Snowflake is a fractal curve. The Antisnowflake is a variation.

This script uses recursion to construct the fractal.

Drawing is done using the turtle module.

Two Python functions are defined:

  1. draw_koch_curve(length, recursion_depth, draw_anti_snowflake = False)

    This function draws a Koch curve which is used for the sides of the snow flakes. It calls itself recursively to construct the fractal shape

  2. draw_koch_snowflake(center_xy, length_side, recursion_depth, draw_anti_snowflake = False):

    This function calls draw_koch_curve() three times to draw the snowflake
