Customizing Size of Square through Culling

In the following attached image, I have generated a series of circles on my subsurface, with randomly varying sizes and positioning using random sequence, dispatch and cull sequences. Likewise, I would like to do it using the shape of a square instead. And instead of a random sizes, I would only like to have 4 varying sizes, and be applied in the same way as I did for my circles. I was wondering what is the best method to set up conditional statements to customize and define my cull pattern. Anyone? Thank you for all responses in advance.

Hi,

You wish to use conditionals to control the pattern of the array of squares. Doing this in native GH is possible, but somewhat of a long and drawn out process. It is easier in GH to simple select items with 'list item' and then the inverse 'cull item' to select a specified pattern.

Nevertheless, creating conditionals (in this case with the modulo operator) in GH's python functionality is rather simple and way less work than natively in GH. I don't usually post code responses, but in this case i thought it applicable. You can adjust the modulo values to create your desired pattern.

hope this helps.
