===== Getting started =====


  - Open code.pyret.org and ensure it's connected to your Google account. \\ \\
  - Make a new file named ''asmt1.arr''.

\\ **Note**: Assignments will be graded anonymously, so don't include your
name.


===== Help! =====


  * You'll want to consult the [[https://www.pyret.org/docs/latest/|Pyret documentation]]. It's accessible from CPO by clicking on the pirate button in the top left corner.\\ \\ In particular, we recommend taking a look at the [[https://www.pyret.org/docs/latest/image.html|image documentation]] *before* working on this assignment! \\ \\
  * If you have any questions, please post on [[https://campuswire.com/c/G916D3D51|Campuswire]]. Don't post any code unless requested by the coaches or instructors, though. \\ \\
  * Your friendly coaches and instructors are also here to help with this assignment one-on-one, in person and on Zoom. Check your section's website for a schedule of office hours.


===== Assignment =====

Write code to generate four flags:

  - Madagascar \\ \\ {{madagascar.png?nolink|Flag of Madagascar}} \\ \\
  - Turkey \\ \\ {{turkey.png?nolink|Flag of Turkey}} \\ \\
  - Jamaica \\ \\ {{jamaica.png?nolink|Flag of Jamaica}} \\ \\
  - Greenland \\ \\ {{greenland.png?nolink|Flag of Greenland}} \\ \\

Set up your code so that the four flags are output in the interactions
window (on the right) when we press the //Run// button. Make sure nothing
else is output (no sub-images, numbers, strings, or otherwise).


===== Grading criteria =====

When we grade the assignments, we //will// be looking for accuracy in
  * the shapes that are present,
  * their general locations,
  * sizes, and
  * orientations.

We do //not// care about
  * exact positioning,
  * exact size ratios,
  * borders,
  * exact angles, or
  * precise color shades.

For instance, you can use ''"green"'' as the color name even though it
produces a brighter green than on these flags. If you want to be more
accurate, a comprehensive list of the color names Pyret understands can be
found [[https://www.pyret.org/docs/latest/color.html#%28part._s~3acolor-constants%29|here]].

For this assignment, we won't be grading on style. However, you should
start familiarizing yourself with [[https://www.pyret.org/docs/latest/Pyret_Style_Guide.html|good Pyret style]], which
will be graded on future assignments.


===== Submit assignment =====

  - Download your file (//File// -> //Download//) and ensure it's named ''asmt1.arr''. \\ \\
  - Upload your assignment on [[https://www.gradescope.com|Gradescope]]. \\ \\

**Note:** You can submit as many times as you want before the deadline. Only your latest submission will be graded.
