This is a question about selecting items from the tree in a specific way.
I have a tree that has x number of branches. From branch 0 to n, each branch has y number of items (the number of items remains same in each branch). Now I want to select two items from one branch and the next two items from the next branch until y items are selected (have a look at the image for example). Now x and y are variables where x>y, x<y or x=y, anything is possible. It would be great if someone can help me to solve this puzzle in grasshopper. To start with, one can choose x=17 and y=24. But keeping them variable would be the best.
You can use Sublist (0-1) to get first two items from each branch, then flatten (or shift path) the resulted tree and use sublist again with 0 to Y domain
[edit] question: it is unclear to me why you want the number of branches from which data is collected (x) to be an explicit input, instead of being gathered directly from the data-tree itself like the following:
