created surface with sweep and rotate them with number of division. Section curves of 2Railsweep is defined with 3 Point arc and shape is also controlable.
You can change shape by sliding 16 paramteters.
The definition is rather long, hope somebody can modify with more sphiscated manner.

can you help me?
thank you
…
number of divisions on that curve as in the defintion (i.e. by 4). The offset in the def is slightly different and should cull two or three more curves as in the lists that show my aim below.
Basically I want to look into each branch of the groups of points from each closed curve . Marking in a list whether it contains a one or a zero (0= outside 1 = coincidents).
{0;0}0. 21. 22. 23. 2 {0;1} 0. 01. 22. 03. 2 {0;2}0. 01. 02. 03. 0 {0;3}0. 21. 22. 23. 2 {0;4}0. 21. 22. 23. 2 {0;5}0. 21. 22. 23. 2 {0;6}0. 01. 22. 23. 1 {0;7}0. 21. 22. 03. 0 {0;8}0. 21. 22. 23. 2 {0;9}0. 21. 22. 23. 2 {0;10}0. 21. 22. 23. 2 {0;11}0. 21. 22. 23. 2 {0;12}0. 21. 22. 23. 2 {0;13}0. 01. 22. 23. 0 {0;14}0. 21. 22. 23. 2
I want to create a list from these points. That marks each curve that pokes out, in a cull pattern as such:
20022210222202
Using a 1 where there are co-incidents in the curve points and the boundary. A 2 for true (outside points) and a 0 for containment. So I might be able to use the 1 in future developments - however if a true false list is easiest I can live with that.
So could I use F(x) function? - to look for 0 or 1's in each bunch of points and thus list as such for a cull pattern? or will Path mapper help me here? Or can I rely on simply grafting and splitting??
I am usure of the neatest solution and would love to learn. Hope you can direct me.rgrds

2, 8, 1)
These are all valid constructors.
You can also append indices to an existing path:
Dim p_base As New GH_Path(0)
Dim p0 = p_base.AppendElement(0)
Dim p1 = p_base.AppendElement(1)
in which case p0 and p1 will be {0;0} and {0;1} respectively

t, let's talk about randomness. Randomness is a problem in computing because digital computers are deterministic. If you give them the exact same instructions they always end up with the exact same result. It turns out to be mathematically impossible to generate true random numbers using a digital computer, but it is fairly easy to generate pseudo-random numbers. This is actually not bad news as pseudo-random numbers -unlike real random numbers- can be generated again and again and you'll end up with the same random numbers every time. Being able to get the same random numbers on demand increases the reliability of these number sequences which in turn makes them easier to use.
Pseudo-random numbers are numbers that have certain characteristics. Note that when we talk about random numbers we are really talking about numbers. Plural. It's easy to generate only a single one, as xkcd so eloquently put it:
So what are these characteristics that define pseudo-randomness? Without being actually correct, I can sum them up as follows:
The sequence of generated numbers should never repeat itself*
The numbers in the sequence ought to be spread evenly across the numeric domain**
There are a lot of different algorithms out there, some better than others, some faster than others, some solving very specific problems while others are more generic. The generator used in Grasshopper is the standard Microsoft .NET Random, based on Donald Knuth's subtractive algorithm.
So let's imagine we want random integers between 0 and 10. What would a bad random sequence look like?
3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 (about as bad as it gets)
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 (not random at all)
1 3 2 5 3 9 1 2 4 2 5 1 1 2 8 1 5 2 3 4 (too many low numbers)
2 8 4 6 0 9 8 2 4 8 6 4 2 2 5 1 4 8 6 2 (too many even numbers)
So what about good sequences? Well, here's a few:
6 9 1 2 0 4 2 8 5 7 2 9 1 9 2 5 3 1 9 2 (sure, why not)
6 2 5 3 4 1 9 7 8 0 2 1 6 4 5 8 9 5 0 9 (looks about right)
1 8 5 2 3 4 5 7 9 5 2 1 0 2 1 0 9 7 6 4 (I suppose)
9 0 6 4 8 3 1 5 2 7 6 1 4 6 0 1 9 7 5 6 (whatever)
There are a lot of valid pseudo-random sequences. (Seriously, loads). So even if we have a good pseudo-random generator we may be given a random sequence that isn't entirely to our liking. The shorter the sequence we need, the more likely it is that statistical aberrations invalidate that particular sequence for us. What we need is some control over the generator so we don't just get a repeatable sequence, but a repeatable sequence we actually like.
Enter seed values. The random generator requires a seed value before it can generate a random sequence. These seed values are always integers, and they can be any valid 32-bit integer. Every unique seed value results in the same sequence. Every time.
Unfortunately there is no clear relationship between seeds and sequences. Changing the seed value from 5 to 6 will result in a completely difference random sequence, and two sequences that are very similar may well have to wildly different seeds. There is therefore no way to guess a good seed value, it is completely trial-and-error. Also because of this extremely discontinuous nature, you cannot use tools like Galapagos to optimize a seed value.
If you are looking for a pseudo-random sequence which has custom characteristics, you may well end up having to write your own generator algorithm. Ask questions about this on the Grasshopper main forum or the VB/C# forum.
Conclusion: Seed values are integers that define the exact sequence of pseudo-random numbers, but there's no way of knowing ahead of time what sequence it will be and there's no way of tweaking a sequence by slightly changing the seed. Even the tiniest change in seed value will result in a radically different random sequence.

* This is not actually possible. A finite amount of numbers always repeats itself eventually.
** This should only be true for long enough sequences, short sequences are allowed to cluster their values somewhat.

je souhaite réorganiser mes listes en fonction de la croissance de l'item 1 (soit la largeur) puis en fonction de l'item 2 (la hauteur) néanmoins pour chacune de ces listes les items sont indissociables .
dans l'exemple de gauche la liste de rhino et dans l'exemple de droite la liste que je souhaite obtenir c'est d'abord la largeur qui va croissante puis ,lorsque les largeurs sont identiques ce sont les hauteurs qui vont dans l'ordre croissant .Les longueurs restent assignées à la liste.…
