DesignScript

It’s been a really long time that I wrote about something. For past many years, I have been busy working on a domain specific language called DesignScript and it's visual programming interface Dynamo . I am now moving to a world of reality-capture and I’ll miss working on this technology. I find this technology very useful and every now and then I’ll keep coming to it for some geometric and programming experiment. Recently I am learning machine learning and wondering if I can use Dynamo to explain some of the concepts of machine learning. I’ll explore it further but in the mean time let me explain what is DesignScript and Dynamo. DesignScript is a scripting language intended to provide programming capability to designers. Designers can now describe their design-intent effectively using this language. Unlike other procedural languages, it provides two great features such as associativity and replication. The associativity in expressions helps it preserve the intent whereas the rep
