The final recipe of the chapter combines all the building blocks learned so far. Here is the output of our first drawing. As a kid, everyone loves to draw this:
The recipe is just a combination of all the different functions developed and used so far. Here is the recipe:

</html>The recipe is built on the concepts learned in the previous recipes. You will see here the use of a line, an arc, a quadratic curve, and a Bezier curve. All of these drawings are the building blocks for this recipe of a house. The functions are the same as used in the previous recipes. These functions are called to create a flag, a rainbow, and a hut, using only lines, arcs, and curves. Shapes can make your job easier. The next chapter is all about shapes.
