I ran the code with python 2.7.  However, python3 is most likely required
for other exercises in the book.  Here are my results:

>>> import turtle
>>> wn =3D turtle.Screen()
>>> alex =3D turtle.Turtle()
>>> alex.forward(50)
>>> alex.left(90)
>>> alex.forward(30)
>>> wn.mainloop()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: '_Screen' object has no attribute 'mainloop'
>>>

 Python opened a window and drew the lines.  I don't know turtle, so maybe
this can't be run interactively with wn.mainloop()
