Branch Address in the form {0;1;2;3;4;5;6;7;8;9;.......;N}
Try Grafting the input (I) Create Path by right clicking on it and selecting graft from the context menu…
i mean, i want a slider that can do 3 sides, 4 sides, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10. for the grids because I dont want to use a fixed grid shape such as square grid (4 sides only).
cture, Rhino treats them as a single flat list. For example a surface can have 10 rows and 6 columns of control-points, resulting in a list of 60 points.
But 10 times 6 isn't the only way to get to 60. If you want to make a surface out of a list of 60 points, you'll also have to tell Rhino how those 60 points should be interpreted in terms of a grid. It could be 2*30, 3*20, 4*15, 5*12, 6*10, and all of the aforementioned products the other way around.
Sometimes there's only one way for a number of points to fit into a rectangular grid. For example if you provide 49 points, then 7*7 is the only way to make it work, but these cases are rare so we always demand you give us all the information required to actually make a rectangular grid of control-points from a linear collection.
As for "Why is it, sometimes we need to attach additional value into it?", this is usually because when you divide a domain or a curve into N segments, you end up with N+1 points. For example take the domain {0 to 5}, and divide it into 5 equal subdomains. You end up with {0 to 1}, {1 to 2}, {2 to 3}, {3 to 4} and {4 to 5}. However there are six numbers that mark the transitions between these domains 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. This is why you often have to add 1 to the UCount, because the number that controls the UCount often results in N+1 actual points.…

in the desired order.
0 = 0
1 = 1
2 = 6
3 = 7
4 = 8
5 = 9
6 = 12
7 = 13
8 = 2
9 = 3
10 = 4
11 = 5
12 = 10
13 = 11
Where the first number is the index and the second number is the actual sorting key. Then you sort these keys while sorting your curves in parallel using the A input of the Sort component.

points 0, X-1, (2*x)-1, (3*X)-1, (4*X)-1, (5*X)-1 and then
1, X, (2*x), (3*X), (4*X), (5*X)
2, X+1, (2*x)+1, (3*X)+1, (4*X)+1, (5*X)+1
and so on till
5, X+4, (2*x)+4, (3*X)+4, (4*X)+4, (5*X)+4
How can I do this best?
Thanks,

13;2} ... 20.{13;12}
21. {21;0}22. {21;1}23. {21;2} ... 41. {21;20}
42. {34;0}43. {34;1}44. {34;2} ... 75. {34;33}
76. {55;0}77. {55;1} ... ....
I want to grab the first 8 [0-7], the next 13[8-20], the next 21[21-42] etc
so i have the (known fibonacci seq) list of numbers on the left here:
C S
8 0
13 8
21 21
34 42
55 76
89 131
144 220
233 364
and i need the list on the right, so that i can select items using a Series (N=1 and S and C from the list above) and a List Item component.
the simple question is:
is there a component that can take a list and accumulate it in this way that I need?
if not, is there anyone that can point me to a simple relevant VB example so i could easily adapt it?
many thanks,
gotjosh…
