[Solved] Turtle gives WARNING: Secure coding is not enabled for restorable state and doesn't print – Python

The Problem:

When running a Python script using the turtle module to create a graphical turtle window and move the turtle, the program fails to print a message ("Hi") as expected. Instead, it generates a warning message: "WARNING: Secure coding is not enabled for restorable state and doesn’t print." How can this issue be resolved to display the message?

The Solutions:

Solution 1: Reordering Code Execution

The issue arises because the code exits immediately after calling screen.exitonclick(). To ensure the output ("Hi") is printed, the code should be reordered:

from turtle import Turtle, Screen

timmy_the_turtle = Turtle()
timmy_the_turtle.shape("turtle")

# Print "Hi" before exiting
print("Hi")

# Create and exit the screen
screen = Screen()
screen.exitonclick()

In this way, the output is printed before the program exits.

Solution 2: Move the print statement

The provided code works as expected, but to see the "Hi" message printed in the console, you need to move the print("Hi") statement before the screen.exitonclick(). This is because the program ends before the print statement can execute.

Here’s the updated code:

from turtle import Turtle, Screen

timmy_the_turtle = Turtle()

timmy_the_turtle.shape("turtle")

print("Hi")  # Move the print statement here

screen = Screen()
screen.exitonclick()

With this modification, you should see the message "Hi" printed in the console when you run the program.
