how to Reduce a process

hi all,

i would like to know how we are abble in grashopper to reduce a process. This process is the same action overlaid x times. (x depending on the list length making the first input of the process)

Every time i need to do this i juste do it litteraly in my file and it make it very loud and long... :(

Well this picture should show how the process works

Maybe it's a script, coding, maybe it's juste a "button" i have no clue :(

Thx all

"Iteration" is the word. Repeat a process a given number of times or until a criterion is met.

GH straight out of the box isn't meant to do iterations, it's meant do process data in a stricly linear way. You can do iterations by either scripting/coding or use Hoopsnake for GH.

If the process involves human interaction (i.e. picking a point with the mouse), then you probably can't (or at least shouldn't) do it in Grasshopper.
