They can be found under Display -> Draw Fancy Wires

This helps understand what data flows between the components:

Single Line -> Item

Double Line -> List

Dashed Double Line -> Datatree

looks okay, maybe you can compare the outputs to the image (it's less about the numbers more the datastructure..)

There is a download (sample file) but I am afraid that beyond that, ...

You can have a look at:

http://www.gbl.tuwien.ac.at/_docs/GrasshopperScriptum/GrasshopperSc...

this is kind of a scriptum, at one point in time I might add an explaination about the longest average path.

As said at one point in time there might be on.

If you download Spiderweb there are some example files where I tried to add comments to the GH-Definition to help in understanding...

wollen wir mal hoffen, dass deutschland mit hilfe der europäischen union die anderen europäischen ländern anektiert, so dass wir in zukunft auch etwas leichter kommunizieren können. es ist doch ein wenig umständlich. ;)
