-# FP3: Final Project Assignment 3: Exploration 2
-Due Sunday, March 26, 2017
-
-This assignment is the same as [FP1], except definitely choose a library that you expect to use for your full project.
-
-You will be in your team before you complete this assignment. You and your teammate(s) must coordinate to (1) both choose libraries relevant to your project, and (2) each choose a different library.
-
-The report template is below, beginning with "Library Name Here."
-
-## How to Prepare and Submit This Assignment
-
-1. To start, [**fork** this repository][forking]. 
-1. Add your `.rkt` Racket source file(s) to the repository. 
-1. Add any images to the repository.
-1. Modify the `README.md` file and [**commit**][ref-commit] changes to complete your report.
-1. Ensure your changes (report in `md` file, added `rkt` file(s), and images) are committed to your forked repository.
-1. [Create a **pull request**][pull-request] on the original repository to turn in the assignment.
-
-## Library Name Here
-My name: **put your real name here**
+## Turtles
+My name: Scott Quinn

+I enjoyed the plotting library so I wanted to pick another that had to do with drawing or something to that nature. I picked turtles because it seems simple yet intuitive. I started off with the most basic function. Make the turtle draw a line 30 pixels long.
+```racket
+#lang racket
+
+(require graphics/turtles)
+(turtles)
+
+(draw 30)
+```
+![a](/a.jpg?raw=true"a")
+Then I tried turning it.
+
+```racket
+(turn/radians (/ pi 2))
+(draw 100)
+```
+
+![turn](/turn.jpg?raw=true"true")
+
+
+I then split the turtle into multiple parts
+```racket
+(split (turn/radians (/ pi 2)))
+(split (turn/radians (/ pi 2)))
+(split (turn/radians (/ pi 2)))
+
+(draw 10)
+```
+I noticed how the draw command affected all of the turtles so I kept calling the turn and draw commands in the REPL.
+
+![1](/1.jpg?raw=true"1")
+
+So I made a function that could do that instead of doing repeated calls manually.
+```racket
+(define (fract n c)
+  (fract-iter n 0 c))
+(define (fract-iter length count mcount)
+  (if (> count mcount)
+      count
+      ((turn (random 360))
+       (draw (random length))
+       (fract-iter length (+ count 1) mcount))))
+```
+![2](/2.jpg?raw=true"2")
+![3](/3.jpg?raw=true"3")
+![4](/4.jpg?raw=true"4")
+![5](/5.jpg?raw=true"5")
+
+I enjoyed the symmetry of the pictures and decided that was enough.
