Week 3: Repetition and Loops - Computational Methods Fall 2012
This skills video covers the repetition of data in Grasshopper with the Series and Range components. It examines one- and two-dimensional systems for positioning and transformations, and introduces the use of the Graph Mapper for visual generation of data patterns. Data-matching, Graft, and Flatten are touched upon as they relate to the discussion.
3:00 What number does the Series component start counting from? (Hint: it is not 1)
10:00 What is the difference between the input and outputs of Series and the Range components?
9:05 What is something to watch out for with the output of the Range component? e.g. If you have 9 steps, how many numbers does Range return?
12:00 Review the pattern for using the Rectangle component
14:15 How does adding an Expression to a input work?
19:15 Why is there an extra rectangle in the script output? How do you fix it? Why is it important to match data amounts in your scripts?
38:15 How does Grafting result in a grid pattern of points, rather than a stair-step? Why is this considered a loop?
