Is it like this:
If a beam is connected from nod 0 to 1 and from 1 to 4. Another from 2 to 3 and from 3 to 5.
Node 1 and 3 have the same coordinates, but are they rigidly connected or not?
,{0;2},{0;3},{0;4},{0;5}... and I want to get {0;0},{1;0},{2;0},{3;0},{0;1},{1;1}... I already have these latest values within another list (see JPG attached).
THX!!…
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.…

etc.
Group 2 - 1, 6, 11, 16, 21 etc.
Group 3 - 2, 7, 12, 17, 22 etc.
Group 4 - 3, 8, 13, 18, 23 etc.
Group 5 - 4, 9, 14, 19, 24 etc. "
except in data, the branches start at 0, so 'group 1' is branch 0
as for the order of your points, that depends on the input prior sorting...
yrs …
{0;1;0}N=6
{0;1;1}N=6
{0;1;2}N=5
{0;2;0}N=7
{0;2;1}N=8
{0;2;2}N=9
Can you shift and wrap any of the paths A B or C?
Say if I wanted to shift and wrap B by 1 to get the following...
{0;0;0}N=7
{0;0;1}N=8
{0;0;2}N=9
{0;1;0}N=3
{0;1;1}N=2
{0;1;2}N=5
{0;2;0}N=6
{0;2;1}N=6
{0;2;2}N=5…
