Hoopsnake
Update:
Hoopsnake is now Open Source!
Check out the repo in Github!
Fork it and fix it :)
Hoopsnake is a component that allows feedback loops within Grasshopper.
Simplest most example of Hoopsnake usage.
First of all I am apologizing for sending a private message to all the group members.
What I really wanted is to post this discussion. But for some reason this Ning forum system is still confusing me.
I apologize for that.
I would like to ask somebody to post as simple as possible example of how Hoopsnake works.
Thank you, and sorry once again for that private message.

1° step: initial triangle (polygon with three sides).
2° step: three triangles inside, using the triangle from the previous step as reference (explote triangle, get vertex, mid points, split/cull list, create new triangles).
3° step: repeat with the resulting triangles (use hoopsnake with step 1 and step 2).
