It’s a Doco (and this is a quick stub)

TLDR; Doco, it explains stuff. Download “80/20 A documentation”

Click here to download 80/20 doco_A.

But you should not be using it. You should be using OS++ examples directly, by downloading the framework below.

http://osplusplus.org/2022standard/The_Download.tar.gz

Once downloaded and uncompressed check-out “Learn_Hard1A_v1_0_0.scad” for examples in the root directory

NB Learn_Hard1A covers the same subject mater as doco_A. Hard1B will cover the next chapter, when it’s released …..

The OS++; code comes in a downloadable compressed file. Once uncompressed you will find a file in the root called something like “Learn_Hard1A_v1_0_0.scad.” You can open this up with openscad. Everything should be in the right place to just render by pressing F6 or F5 for colour. This file contains blocks of code, all remmed out. These block examples start with a simple statement and then becomes increasingly complex examples. So just unrem the code and play with it and then reload when you break it. This is the best way to learn in my opinion.

Why is this the best way to learn?

1. This is quick for me to compile and therefore this file should be up to date.
2. I use it as a quick way do unit testing when adding new features. Therefore the code should work straight off the bat.
3. Alternatively Code examples in the doco pdf sometimes do not work due to character conversions when copying and pasting ie The Double quote chracter conversion problem.
4. I am not a teacher. My wordy explanations probably make little sense and probably will annoy you with my irreverence.

Obviously there is a lot to remember here. So I have added a cheat sheet which is in the same download and is called cheatsheet.pdf

while “Learn_Hard1A_v1_0_0.scad.” contains many single examples. An actual coherent and full example of a shape can be found in same downloads. The files all start with the word “example” and include support files.

Doco_80-20.pdf

This file includes what I think are useful things to know. I have tried to explain the rational for why things are the way they are. If things get a little bit off topic I will continue the trail of thought in doco_80-20_indepth.pdf

Doco_80-20_indepth.pdf

This file contains trains of thought that probably should be taken out and shot. Spelling will be haphazard. Punctuation non existent. You have been warned. Do not download if you value your sanity or are a punctuation/spelling Nazi.

In other news

If you have found a random bit of code on the internet and it’s directed you here and you just want it to work. Then

Goto http://osplusplus.org/2022standard and download the standard. Called “The_Download” which is a compressed tar.

Once you have unziped, decompressed and untared it. Simply shove the code you have found into the root sub directory of the tarball. The root directory is essentially the directory below z_lib. From there its should just work when you load it up with openscad and press f6.

Enjoy.
