this, you'll have no horizontal force at the roller, but you will have it at the pinned support. If you wouldn't, then the structure will be displaced.
Usually, in 2 dimensional structures, if you want to know if an articulated structure is isostatic (as opposed to hyperstatic, which is what you have right now) is to use the following formula:
b+c-2·n=0;
b being the number of bars, c the number of constraints you have and n the number of nodes. In your case: b=19, c=3 (displacements constrained in X, Z at your pinned support and only constrained in Z at your roller support) and n=11, so: 19+3-2·11=0.
I recommend you to download the app SW Truss, as it's very useful to check your results instantly.…
rve
10 curve
11 curve
12 curve
13 curve
...and I'd like to rearrange the order in which the curve are listed, to something like this:
{0,0,0}
0 curve
1 curve
8 curve
9 curve
10 curve
11 curve
2 curve
3 curve
4 curve
5 curve
12 curve
13 curve
6 curve
7 curve
I hope this makes sense.
Thank in advance for any advice,

output will show a tree with 3 branches of 4 integers each that I can pass on to other components. What is the best way to do it?
I have tried creating a tree and using a for loop to do so, but it didn't work.
Thank you for your help.

are on their own paths, but the first branch contains 3 curves and the second one 2 curves. If you want the same result for all pairs of curves you'd need to split up the first and second branches, so that all curves are on their own branch.…
