Turtle geometry is frequently used in computer graphics. Models that form complex patterns are obtained by augmenting the above grammar with new variables to denote particular pattern elements, and with new rules governing the structure of those patterns elements, hence the list of variables in the above definition is left open ended. For example, the following rules use the variables Design ,Arm ,etc to describe the formation of the simple design shown in the Figure (a). Part (b) of the figure
