 Drawing Rectangle
 -------------------
 To draw a rectangle, you need top-left corner and bottom-right corner of rectangle. This time we will draw a green rectangle at the top-right corner of image.

 Drawing Circle
 ----------------
 To draw a circle, you need its center coordinates and radius. We will draw a circle inside the rectangle drawn above.

 Drawing Ellipse
 --------------------
@@ -55,7 +55,7 @@ Drawing Ellipse
 To draw the ellipse, we need to pass several arguments. One argument is the center location (x,y). Next argument is axes lengths (major axis length, minor axis length). ``angle`` is the angle of rotation of ellipse in anti-clockwise direction. ``startAngle`` and ``endAngle`` denotes the starting and ending of ellipse arc measured in clockwise direction from major axis. i.e. giving values 0 and 360 gives the full ellipse. For more details, check the documentation of **cv2.ellipse()**. Below example draws a half ellipse at the center of the image.
 ::
 
-    img = cv2.ellipse(img,(256,256),(100,50),0,0,180,255,-1)
