Coffee + Grasshopper

A daily geometric problem is presented to the grasshopper 3d community. Degrees of difficulty vary by day.The idea is to sharpen skills, challenge, or a fun exercise: Useful for beginners wanting to learn, or as an alternative to your morning coffee + cross-word puzzle. Rules:Contributions can be posted by anyone. Either selected from a previously posted problem from the general discussion (please acknowledge original poster), a selection from one of the many grasshopper+ primers (please…See More

"Looks really cool. I plan to download tomorrow and take a look. I have used CATIA for the last 10 years but have working in GH primarily for the last 6 months. Will post comments soon."

"Yes I did have "List Access" but I had not made sure that the incoming data was simplified and matching appropriately. Once I flattened the incoming streams then the code above works great. I Need to go back and review more my…"

Parallel execution of code within C# scripting components with List inputs

Is it possible to utilize the System.Threading.Tasks.Parallel namespace within a scripting component (c#,VB,python) when the inputs are list(s) of parameters. Currently, the default behavior of the compiled source appears to iterate over the input data lists and calls the RunScript method with single input items from the list. This seems to preclude any parallel execution as each call to the RunScript does not have access to the entire list. My goal is to see if I can get c# scripting…See More

michael sprinzl replied to Craig Long's discussion Question about Memory - SDK Fix?

"I do not know what you are doing but if you are scripting sometimes you need to clear the GarbageCollector GC or Dispose() some Tasks (Fileloading) this can really speedup you application. Look if some classes you are using have dispose ... this…"
