Honeycomb is a structure of hexagonal cavities (cells of wax), made by bees to store honey and eggs.
In this challenge we will use a set of iterative algorithms to draw a honeycomb pattern.
First, we will create a function to draw a single hexagonal cavity. Our function called drawCavity() will take three parameters:
- x – the x coordinates to position the hexagon.
- y – the x coordinates to position the hexagon.
- edgeLength – the length in pixels of an edge of the hexagon.
We will then need to use some nested for loops in order to tessellate the hexagonal cell to recreate a 2D honeycomb pattern.
Python Code
We have started the code for you, using Python Turtle. You will need to complete this code further to complete the pattern fully.
