THE CODEWRITING WORKBOOKCreating Computational Architecture in AutoLISP

Robert J. Krawczyk
Foreword by William J. Mitchell

The Codewriting Workbook introduces students and practitioners to basic programming concepts for computer-aided design (CAD). Through a series of guided exercises and examples, readers learn how to develop and write procedures for creating two-dimensional drawings and three-dimensional models using a variety of algorithmic functions. Each exercise begins with a simple concept and evolves into a family of possible solutions. A primer on programming, The Codewriting Workbook presents efficient methods for computing singular results that, when compounded, generate the broadest range of design possibilities.
