### Description

**square()** draws a square on the canvas, using the inputs to determine the position and dimension of the shape. The corners can be given a curvature in order to draw a 'rounded square', but the length and height of the square must always be equal to one another. Also, the length and height need to be parallel to the x-axis and y-axis respectively - this can only be changed separately with a rotation.
