About this Project

These tasks will give you more practice with custom functions, including fruitful functions which use turtle or wavesynth.

You must do timeProfiler, and then you can choose to do either treeTops or highNotes depending on whether you want to work with graphics or audio. Both are complex, but treeTops may be a bit easier to figure out overall.

If you want to find a partner to work with for this project, use this Google Sheet to do so.

Time Estimate

Our per-task estimate for this project is 2-4 hours, plus up to an hour of reading.
