1.1.1 Summarizing work-flow using stepwise procedure into set of rules.

Pseudocode(f) summarizes a program flow, but excludes underlining details. In figure 1-3 the student is trying to break down his design process using illustrations and carefully recording the steps required to develop a tubular surface with relative fenestrations. This process is then translated into a script through tools like grasshopper to generate complex form.

STEP 01 : DEFORMATION INTENSITY. Rule: Define reference object with set radius and number of segments. Parameter: Number of vertical section

STEP 02 : DEFINING CROSS SECTION INTERVALS. Rule: Increments of Fibonacci sequence between sections. Constrain: Spacing between section. Parameter: Number of horizontal section.

STEP 03 : IDENTIFYING THE DEFORMATION POINTS. Rule: Alternate point selection on each section with inverted relationship to its neighbors. Constrain: Identifying the deformation points based on the ascending spiral selection.

STEP 04 : DIRECTIONAL MOVEMENT OF THE IDENTIFIED POINTS. Rule: Perpendicular movement of deformation points to its section with an invert relationship. Parameter: Depth of vertical section.

STEP 06 : DEFINING CURVE THROUGH DEFORMED POINTS. Rule: Draw vertical cross section by interpolating points between each horizontal section grafted by number of vertical sections.

STEP 07 : SURFACE FORMATION. Rule: Creating network surface through achieved curves with edge conditions on both sides same as the reference object.

STEP 08 : DEFINING HEXAGONAL CELLS. Parameter: Defining no. of Hexagonal divisions.

STEP 09 : DEFINING HEXAGONAL CELL OPENINGS. Constrain: Opening of the cells on surface becomes smaller as the deformation points moving away from the axis.

Pseudocode(f) is a non programming language used to outline a rough draft of script syntax in simple words by establishing procedure of various rules, parameters and constraints. It summarizes a program flow, but excludes underlining details.
