Circle packing along a curve

Grasshopper
1

Hi All,

I’m sure someone has asked this before, and apologies if this is the case, but I was wondering if anyone knew how to populate a curve with points equal distant from each other. Essentially this would be packing circles along a curve. I know there is a divide distance function, but there is always some remainder at the end of the curve - I’d like to know the radius/distance which divides the arbitrary curve completely.

Any help would be much appreciated!

Amazing - thank you Daniel - I read your thread and thought the same thing, that perhaps there wouldn’t actually be a good solution but that at least it would be iterative (that’s how I did it manually, with a slider).

This is making me want to get more into iterative scripts, during this strange time, I’m giving myself the challenge of finally going from a tinkerer in GH to a real cook!

Many thanks for your help on this small problem!
