/** Display a random step of the turtle.
* inputs:
* direction: -1 for step to the left or 1 for step to the right
* output: Nothing. Moves the calling turtle object.
* */
public void takeStep( int direction )

----

I gotta make a method called takeStep that does all that, but I'm not sure how. If I'm reading it right, it wants me to have two different calls for two different integers (1 and -1) so if I do turtle.takeStep(1) it turns right and if I do -1 it turns left. I also want him to face up after every step. Should look like pic related.

Not much info

public void takeStep( int direction ){
if (direction ==1){ //code for step right X++ or whatever}
if (direction == -1){ //code for step left }
}

Well fuck me, that worked perfectly. Thanks, anon.

if you're using X as a coordinate you might be able to simplify with something like:
X += direction; //instead of if's
