The JavaDoc for CodeDraw can be found here.

Here is an example to get you started:

 import codedraw.*;

 public class MyProgram {
     public static void main(String[] args) {
         // Creates a new CodeDraw window with the size of 600x600 pixel.
         CodeDraw cd = new CodeDraw();

         // Sets the drawing color to red.
         cd.setColor(Palette.RED);
         // Draws the outline of a rectangle.
         cd.drawRectangle(100, 100, 200, 100);
         // Draws a filled Square.
         cd.fillSquare(180, 150, 80);

         // Changes the color to light blue.
         cd.setColor(Palette.LIGHT_BLUE);
         cd.fillCircle(300, 200, 50);

         // Finally, the method cd.show() must be called
         // to display the drawn shapes in the CodeDraw window.
         cd.show();
     }
 }
