Function
Construct a grid of regular connections.
Syntax
#include <dx/dx.h>
Array DXMakeGridConnections(int n, int count, int count, ...)
Array DXMakeGridConnectionsV(int n, int *counts)
Functional Details
Both routines construct an Array of n-dimensional regular grid connections (i.e., a set of n-dimensional cubes, or hypercubes). For example, a quad mesh is represented by a 2-dimensional grid, while a cube mesh is represented by a 3-dimensional grid.
| Note: | DXMakeGridConnections and DXMakeGridConnectionsV set the "element type" for you. |
For DXMakeGridConnections, the counts are given as the last n arguments. The resulting Array is a Mesh Array of n terms, where the kth term is the Path Array connecting counts[k] points; this routine is included to simplify the process of creating the common case of regular grid connections. The number of points along each axis is given by counts.
Return Value
Return the Array or return NULL and sets an error code.
