You will be able to apply the theory in practice and prepare a simple profit and loss, financial and balance sheet budget for a company, in addition to a partial budget.

1. Implement a function to draw a leafy tree
2. Customize the function to accept parameters for the size of the tree and the color of the leaves.
3. Use loops and previously created functions to generate a forest.
4. Create a function to draw a pine tree
