Such a function would be welcomed.
For the best of my (limited) knowledge, there's currently no arc() function
in module turtle.
I can't think about a proper name... Sorry.

There's no reasonable mechanism in current Python by which this could produce
an error message; it's not an
Nick Timkovich added the comment:
Resolving #1 as you suggest is next to impossible. Python can not deduce if you
meant to call the function or just refer to its name. Admittedly, the latter is
strange in non-interactive contexts, but it is valid.
#2, as far as I can tell Logo had an ARC

Hi,
Sorry to say but these don't satisfy my issues.
1 the next code SHOULD produce an error message. Think that it's followed
by a few dozens of code lines:
from turtle import *
fd; rt(90)
2 Old Logo had a useful function of creating a circle AROUND THE TURTLE.

Nick Timkovich added the comment:
Regarding #1: In Python, you may refer to a variable's name (e.g. `rt`, which
is a function), which often has no effect in a script. In the REPL (where you
see >>>) it is useful to inspect the object:
>>> turtle.rt
In order to call that name/function,
New submission from Yehuda Katz :
1 - turtle bug: If I don't put parenthesis at the end of a line, I don't get
error message. Try this:
from turtle import *
fd(50); rt
done()
2 - request: Highly desirable a function that draws a circle with radius n
