1. Create a new script with the function asterisk() that draws an asterisk. For example, ▹asterisk should produce a drawing like the following:

   
   

2. Add the function asterisk row(length : Number) to the script from the previous excercise to draw a row of asterisks, each touching the neighboring asterisks. For example, ▹asterisk row(5) should produce a drawing like the following:

   
   The distance between the center of neighboring askterisks can be computed with the equation:

   2 * s * cos(0.523598776)

   where s is half the height of the asterisk. To compute the cosine, use the math→cos function.

3. Modify the script from the previous excercise to draw multiple rows of asterisks, each offset, but touching the neighboring row of asterisks. For example:

   
   The vertical distance between neighboring rows of asterisks can be computed with the equation:

   3 * s * sin(0.523598776)

   where s is half the height of the asterisk. Note, you will also need to compute the horizontal offest for each row.
