We will learn about these sketching commands in this chapter. However, it is important to understand that all complex sketches are a combination of different simpler sketches.
Let's illustrate this with an example. The following image shows a sketch of a relatively complex shape:
Note that the complex shape is made up of a combination of different simple elements, such as lines and arcs. This image can be easily made with four different sketching commands: ...
