Hi all. First post, happy to be here.
A quick introduciton. I am a Norwegian architecture student who just started on my Master education in Germany after 2 years of working experience in an architecture office. Before I took my bachelor of architecture I had a uni degree in informatics and worked 5 years as a Java programmer.
I was just introduced to Rhino and Grasshopper last week in a uni course, and all of a sudden it seems as though my two carreers have found a tangent point.
I am very excited about the outlook of using my programming skills in my architecture. I am still not quite sure where C++, C#, VB.net and Rhinoscript fits in the scheme of things? I just read through a Rhinoscript primer, and though the syntax and programming is no problem, I am left with the question of whether I should write code in Rhinoscript or with Grasshopper in combination with VB or as C# standalone code? I have found lots of documentation, but most of it is geared towards helping users with no programming experience getting started; for them the recommendation is rhinoscript?
But if the programming is not the problem, what is the best practices/most common use of these tools? Grasshopper with C# (or even J#?)?
I would greatly appreciate if you could give me a recommendation on what where to start; with what tools and programming languages.
Cheers,
Eirik
