#!N  #!Rall651 gridconnections Keyword #!N #!EC #!N #!N The  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   gridconnections 
#!EF keyword is used to represent the  #!F-adobe-times-medium-i-normal--18*   n #!EF -dimensional 
cuboidal connections of a regular grid in a compact form. It 
is a kind of Array Object and can be used as 
the "connections" component of a Field. The shape of the grid 
(number of points in each dimension) are specified by a list 
of  #!F-adobe-times-medium-i-normal--18*   n #!EF numbers following the optional  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   counts #!EF 
keyword in the  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   object #!EF clause. The last number corresponds 
to the fastest varying component of the positions. The number  #!F-adobe-times-medium-i-normal--18*   
n #!EF of items in this list determines the dimensionality of 
the grid. The last item in this list corresponds to the 
fastest varying dimension. #!N #!N If this grid is part of 
a Composite Field Object, then  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   meshoffsets #!EF must be specified 
to define where this grid is positioned relative to the entire 
Composite Field. The  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   meshoffsets #!EF (one number for each dimension, 
and specified in the same order as  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   counts #!EF ) 
are the accumulated count of connections between the origin of the 
whole grid and the origin of this grid. #!T,96 #!CForestGreen #!N

] #!EF #!N #!N #!EC #!N #!N The  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   gridconnections #!EF 
keyword does not actually correspond to a primitive Object type in 
the system, but instead is a convenient way of representing an 
important special case of the more general mesh (Mesh Array Object) 
of  #!F-adobe-times-medium-i-normal--18*   n #!EF 1-dimensional paths (path Array Objects). For most 
purposes the  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   gridconnections #!EF keyword is sufficient and more convenient. 
The more primitive Mesh and Path Arrays are described next. #!N
