You have explored how loops and color lists can be combined to create dynamic, generative art patterns. By using nested loops, you can systematically control the placement of elements—such as squares in a grid—while color lists allow you to vary the appearance in visually engaging ways. This approach gives you the flexibility to generate intricate designs with just a few lines of code, and by changing variables, you can easily experiment with new patterns and color combinations. In this challenge, you will use these techniques to build a customizable grid of colored squares, reinforcing your understanding of loops, lists, and creative coding with `matplotlib`.
