he same order of the list. for example i have a list with 4 different lenght of curve like this:
0= 10
1= 12
2= 8 (minimum)
3= 17 (maximum)
and wont to make a ranking that the longest curve gets the value 4 and the smallest the value 1, like this
0= 2
1= 3
2= 1
3= 4
i tried the sort list function, but it dosn`t work
can anybody help me!
thx a lot…
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.…

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).

But I seem to be having a problem with this closest to some value thing: values in my list are too small, up too 1 x 10^-30. The closest value I want to search for in that list is 1.25 x 10^-9
But Grasshoppers "find similar" component recognizes all of the values from the list, to be similar to 1.25 x 10^-9, because all of those values are in range from 0.1 to 1 x 10^-30.
Is there a way some kind of tolerance can be made, when it comes to recognizing a similar value?…
