Bend cylinder

Hi everyone,

I'm a total beginner in Grasshopper/Rhino and have been watching a lot of tutorials the past weeks. I'm struggling to make a shape that can be modified depending on different values.

The concept would be a basic cylinder that can be bended in any direction. The base of the cylinder would be fixed to a plane and the other end would bend in a certain axis.

The amount of bending would also need to be controlled by a certain value.

I'm not sure which components I need to use in order to accomplish this. Does anyone  have any idea? (I've attached a picture of my goal below)

Thanks!

Simon
