Closed IRREGULAR Planar polylines constructed by segment amount and segment lenght

good morning to everyone! i was wondering in the last days if theres a way to generate a closed IRREGULAR Planar Polyline (imagine an Snake) that complies with several rules:

1. all the segments are of the same lenght,

2. it has to be closed (starting from 0,0,0 and ending in 0,0,0)

3. you can specify the amount of segments,

of course the angles formed by the segments would be all different...

until now im able to specify the lenght, and amount iof segments, but im not able to Close it... so no luck in fullfilling all the rules.

many thanks in Advance.

Esteban

Hi Esteban,

Here's a definition that takes a closed polyline through a list of points and makes all the segments the same length while keeping the start fixed at the origin.

all in a day's work!
