Exploring Kangaroo basics

- [Instructor] The whole reason we'd want…to use Kangaroo in one of our Grasshopper definitions…is to help us simulate physical forces and interactions.…And maybe we'd want to do something…like test out a structural design for a building…or for a mechanical part we're planning to fabricate.…So, with that in mind, in this video we'll walk…through some of the basic structures…that we'll see when using Kangaroo version two.…So, I've got a new blank Rhino file open,…a new blank Grasshopper definition.…I'm just going to jump under the Kangaroo tab here,…and let's look under the Main menu.…So here I'm looking for the solver component.…

Pretty much the heart of any Kangaroo definition…is the solver component.…And I can see there's a couple different variations here.…I have BouncySolver, regular solver,…StepSolver, and so on.…Most of the time, you'll be using just the solver component.…In this video, let's use the BouncySolver.…And that one is going to just help us…visually see a little bit more clearly…how Kangaroo is doing its thing.…
