Lists of Geometric Elements

Accessing the geometric elements of a Cinderella construction represents an important interface between CindyScript and a geometric construction. In particular, if for some reason the element names (i.e., labels) are unknown or varying, one needs a way to retrieve the geometric elements. This is done with operators that return lists of elements of a particular kind.

All points of the construction: allpoints()

All lines of the construction: alllines()

All segments of the construction: allsegments()

All circles of the construction: allcircles()

All conics of the construction: allconics()

All masses of the construction: allmasses()

All springs of the construction: allsprings()

All elements incident to a given one: allsegments(<geo>)

All elements of the construction: allelements()

Please refer to the examples section for more on the use of these operators.
