Grasshopper for Rhino - Part 1

Grasshopper within Rhino 6 can be used in two main ways :

One – To create different designs using the same concept by changing the parameters. E.g. Number of folds on a surface

Two – Reduce the time span of repetitive tasks using the same algorithm with different geometries in different designs. E.g. Designs to be placed in a gallery

Grasshopper is now used extensively in Architecture and Product Design and is upcoming in the Jewelry Industry.

Part 1 comprises of the introduction the software, its components, their connections, their color-coding, the basic concepts of data generation, pattern creation, defining logic in the script, transformations of objects and most importantly how the data flows using data lists and data trees.
