04_visual_intro_functions

The document outlines a method for drawing various shapes using functions in a programming context, emphasizing the importance of reusability and modularity in code. It describes how to create regular shapes like houses and apartments through defined functions such as draw_triangle, draw_rect, and draw_flat. The document also introduces parametric functions to allow for flexibility in the number of floors or features in the drawings.
