Programming Assignment 4 (Hilbert Curves)
python3 Hilbert.py 4
Hilbert curves come in different sizes, starting at 0. They come in four varieties, H-curve, A-curve, B-curve, and C-curve. Hilbert curves of size 0 occupy no space. Hilbert curves of higher sizes are defined recursively as follows:
The arrows are shown for directional purposes; the actual curves do not contain the arrow. You may assume that each of these "arrow" segment is a straight line of 32 pixels. You can imagine drawing these curves by starting at a point on the canvas with a pen and continue to draw the curve without lifting the pen. Hilbert curves of size i are defined in terms of other curves of size i-1.
Your program should take as command line input the size of the H-curve to be drawn and launch a Graphics canvas on which the H-curve is drawn.
Here are sample H-curves:

It will be helpful to write the following functions:goEast() goWest() goNorth() goSouth() aCurve() bCurve() cCurve() hCurve()Note: You need to decide on the parameters.
