I wrote the code below to try to get the turtle below to move the amount input, but I cannot seem to figure out why defining c will not work. How can I get the input to work? I keep getting an error message "ExternalError: TypeError: Cannot read property 'instance' of undefined on line 13." Line 13 is turtle.forward(int©).
import turtle
myTurtle = turtle.Turtle()
myTurtle.forward(100)
myTurtle.right(90)
myTurtle.penup()
myTurtle.forward(100)
myTurtle.right(90)
myTurtle.pendown()
myTurtle.pencolor("green")
myTurtle.right(90)
myTurtle.forward(100)
c=input(int())
turtle.forward(int(c))
myTurtle.back(100)
try
c = input()
input takes a string argument which is the prompt.
turtle has a built in popup to add text and integers found here:
turtle docs
an example is:
from turtle import *
ta= getscreen()
forward(100)
right(90)
penup()
forward(100)
right(90)
pendown()
pencolor("green")
right(90)
forward(100)
fwd= numinput('forward Movement','Enter integer',
default=1,minval=1,maxval=100)
forward(fwd)
right(100)

Hmmm...this still isn't working. I think it is because I am using Pycharm. The input() function in general is not working. However, I will now look for similar help sites specific to turtles
I was able to run it from thonny, MU, idle, and from command line sorry not using pycharm you could try a different import:
from turtle import getscreen,forward,right,penup,numinput,fd,pencolor,pendown
or try:
from turtle import Turtle, TurtleScreen
myTurtle = Turtle()
myTurtle.forward(100)
myTurtle.right(90)
myTurtle.penup()
myTurtle.forward(100)
myTurtle.right(90)
myTurtle.pendown()
myTurtle.pencolor("green")
myTurtle.right(90)
myTurtle.forward(100)
fwd= TurtleScreen.numinput(myTurtle,'forward','Enter integer',
default=1,minval=1,maxval=100)
myTurtle.forward(fwd)
myTurtle.back(100)
