Can you recreate these designs? What are the basic units? What
movement is required between each unit? Some elegant use of
procedures will help - variables not essential.

We have been sent a dozen different tilings of the plane which incorporate STARS!
Below are three uniform tilings which use regular polygons and a 'star polygon'.
N.B. Every corner of a tile is a vertex of the tiling.

You might like to produce an elegant program to replicate these.
These tilings really caught my imagination.
They comprise some basic shapes and the work is then to identify how to move from one drawing of the shape to the next.
Perhaps it might be useful to think of a shape not as a square say but as a square plus two sides. That is:
Repeat 6 [ fd 30 rt 90]
for example.
