turtle.distance() function in Python

The turtle module provides turtle graphics primitives, in both object-oriented and procedure-oriented ways. Because it uses tkinter for the underlying graphics, it needs a version of Python installed with Tk support.

turtle.distance()

This method is used to return the distance from the turtle to (x,y) in turtle step units. 

Syntax : turtle.distance(x, y=None) 
 

Parameters:

x: x coordinate of Vector 2DVec. 

y: y coordinate of Vector 2DVec.

This method can be called in different formats as given below :

distance(x, y) # two coordinates

distance((x, y)) # a pair (tuple) of coordinates

distance(vec) # e.g. as returned by pos()

distance(mypen) # where mypen is another turtle

Below is the implementation of the above method with some examples :
