Box with Curved Corners

-----------------------------------

Im supposed to make a box with curved corners in Turing for school, using drawline and drawarc, but i cant get the edges of the box and the arcs to match up, or get the arcs to be in the right place.
Any suggestions?

draw.line (x,y,x1,y1, red)
draw.arc (x1,y1,x2,y2, red)
draw.line (x2,y2,x3,y3, red)
draw.arc (x3,y3,x4,y4,red)

Theres The Pattern. I'm sure that it is fairly ovious... If not, ask your teacher
edit: mistake in formulas

A\V -- are you sure you are using Draw.Arc correctly? I thought the Arc was just a segment of an ellipse, cut off at certain angles.

@gothic-sorceress -- Try using Draw.Oval instead of the Arc at first; it's the same thing, but you get to see all of it, and it might be easier to figure how things work from there. Since you are drawing a box, you know you have to make the cuts at 90 degree angles.
