The turtle module provides turtle graphics primitives, in both object-oriented and procedure-oriented ways. Because it uses Tkinter for the underlying graphics, it needs a version of Python installed with Tk support.

turtle.heading()

This function is used to return the turtle's current heading. It doesn't require any argument.

Syntax :

turtle.heading()

Below is the implementation of the above method with some examples :

turtle.speed(1)

    # get heading value
    val = turtle.heading()
    
    # write it
    turtle.write(str(val))
