#! /usr/bin/python2.7 """ turtle-example-suite: tdemo_fractalCurves.py This program draws two fractal-curve-designs: (1) A hilbert curve (in a box) (2) A combination of Koch-curves. The CurvesTurtle class and the fractal-curve- methods are taken from the PythonCard example scripts for turtle-graphics.
