Week 2

By applying the graft tree command to create individual branch on one curve, I am able to create multi-crossing connections between the points on these two curves.

Alternatively, by partitioning the second divided curve, and leaving the set integrals to ‘3’ and ‘2’, each point on the first curve connects to two points on the second curve.

The ‘Explode tree’ command separates each branch into its individual trunk, the output of this component can then be connected to manipulate each column of points.

While parition list give us the opportunity to manipulate with each branch, flattening it would delete branches and merge them into one single branch with only one output value.
