Use the shift component in Rhino & Grasshopper plugin

Use the shift component in Rhino & Grasshopper plugin

In this Rhino / Grasshopper 3D software tutorial we rebuild the shift tutorial provided by David Rutten.
All Grasshopper data is stored in lists. Sometimes you need to perform an action on each item in a list which depends on neighbouring items. For example, if you want to connect each point in a list of points with the next one, you need to somehow get at that second point. There are several ways available of doing this, but Shift is an exceptionally useful one. Shift will move all the values in a list a number of indices to the left or right. As simple as the Rhino and Grasshopper plug-in interface is to understand when one comes at the software for the first time this can be a bit overwhelming. So watch and learn how to work with the shift component in Rhino 3D.
