A spirograph is a very interesting geometrical figure which is often symmetrical to both the axes. It produces mathematical roulette curves of the variety technically known as hypotrochoids and epitrochoids. Here, we've used a range of colors to draw circles, you can use your combination as per your color choice.
Below is the implementation.
# Import the turtle library for
# drawing the required curve
import turtle as tt
# Set the background color as black,
# pensize as 2 and speed of drawing
# curve as 10(relative)
tt.bgcolor('black')
tt.pensize(2)
tt.speed(10)
# Iterate six times in total
for i in range(6):
# Choose your color combination
for color in ('red', 'magenta', 'blue',
'cyan', 'green', 'white',
'yellow'):
tt.color(color)
# Draw a circle of chosen size, 100 here
tt.circle(100)
# Move 10 pixels left to draw another circle
tt.left(10)
# Hide the cursor(or turtle) which drew the circle
tt.hideturtle()
Output:
