/**
 * Rotate. 
 * 
 * Rotating a square around the Z axis. To get the results
 * you expect, send the rotate function angle parameters that are
 * values between 0 and PI*2 (TWO_PI which is roughly 6.28). If you prefer to 
 * think about angles as degrees (0-360), you can use the radians() 
 * method to convert your values. For example: scale(radians(90))
 * is identical to the statement scale(PI/2).
